June – already !!!! Really can’t believe where the year went
to – it seems five minutes since we started – racing around with new students
and new materials – full of hope and excitement for the year ahead !
Even though there are now only 3 learning weeks left, things
are still in full swing – with grade and grade school sports days coming up.
However, looming over everyone’s head is the threat of closing the grade school
– the campaign to raise £ 21,000 is
plodding on, with £ 460 in the bank and numerous pledges – however we still
need to keep going and get everyone involved. With 246 facebook group members,
£ 21,000 really isn’t impossible - we
just need to get everyone excited about the campaign and keep on hoping for the
very best ! – so PLEASE SPREAD THE MESSAGE !!!!
After the remaining 3 weeks, we have exams and then a week
to finish off before the huge end of year graduation! Regular readers will
recall that last year, our graduation was a disaster since there was a huge
downpour for most of the graduation morning, meaning that our 3 hour show had
to be minimized into a 20 minute sample with half of the pupils and watching
parents missing due to the weather !
On that day I vowed that never again would
we all put that much work into something only to have it all dashed at the last
minute – so we came up with the idea of a end of year fete ! This will be the
first ever fete in Ethiopia – so have no idea what the reaction will be ! – but
at least it will be much less work for teachers and pupils and who knows –
everyone may love it !!
