For the past few years the lovely pupils & parents of Atwood Primary Academy in Croydon ( http://www.atwoodprimary.academy/about/headteachers-welcome/) have been donating their outgrown school shoes to our children in Ekudzeni. Bare feet are common, as are shoes that are full of holes, offering little or no protection from the cold and rain. Now thanks to these collections many more of our children can own a decent pair of shoes. Below are the soaking wet, holey trainer's that we were able to replace, along with a brand new school uniform to make one child a very happy boy! This year the lovely Anna, a TA at the school, is again busy collecting shoes for our trip in March - a huge thank you
This year saw 14 of our children leaving pre -school to venture into the world of primary education. Unfortunately this year neither Robert or myself were able to make the trip however the good news is we will both be going out mid March to catch up on all our projects. Please watch this space for our latest news and photographs coming to a blog near you shortly!
