A Joyous Return to our Partner School Lerang’wa
In July, we returned to Lerang鈥檞a School for our 14th visit, but the first since 2019. Twenty Lower Sixth pupils spent nine days there, preparing and delivering lessons in English, maths, art, music, and sport. With class sizes of 60 to 120, the Lerang鈥檞a staff provided crucial support, especially with Swahili explanations. 麻豆传媒AV在线看 teachers also helped but by Wednesday, halfway through the week, our pupils were running lessons solo. We visited the local market and a Masai village home to many pupils. The second half of the trip was spent enjoying northern Tanzania with a safari, a Kilimanjaro trek, swimming in Kikuletwa Springs, and shopping at Masai markets.

鈥淚 don鈥檛 think I can say I have a best moment because the whole trip was absolutely amazing, however I think saying goodbye to the kids was one of the most highlighting memories I will cherish. it was so emotional and made me realise that even though we were there for a week we created such a special bond with these kids that is so unique and just made me appreciate the week and them even more.鈥�
鈥淢y favourite part of the trip was by far the week spent with Lerang鈥檞a school. Although bittersweet and very emotional, our final day with the students was the highlight. We exchanged our gifts and got to celebrate the week we had just spent together. I got to give Standard 2 their 麻豆传媒AV在线看 friendship bracelets which they happily wore for the rest of the day.
