update from Mombasa
Tue 31st January - 8.01pm by Carol Groves
We visited the Architect this morning in Mombasa to discuss plans for more buildings on the land. After this we went back to Victory Freretown to have a meeting with two of our apprentices Rashid and Samwell. They are doing really well as Teaching Assistants and are very hardworking. We were impressed at how committed they are. It was a very productive meeting and they are both very keen to become trained teachers one day. This of course, will need financing, but we hope that we can help them onto the next stage at some point. We went back into Mombasa this evening for a meal with Jacob. Jacob cooked us a first class - African style meal and it was a lovely evening. Tomorrow, we have a meeting with the teachers and some of the parents and we are returning to the Aga Khan school to see Jacob on thursday evening, as the pupils there are putting on a concert to raise funds for Victory school. So far we have had NO mosquito bites - amazing. More news tomorrow. From Carol and Shirley
