Progress on current projects
- Kisarika Headteacher’s house is nearly complete with only a few finishing touches, like hanging doors, needed.
- The Mrawi Dispensary is complete and only needs the last few bits of equipment to be fully functional.
- Foundations have been built for the Mrawi Primary School kitchen and dining hall and we have been able to send out the final funds for its completion.
- We have also been able to send out some initial funds for the classroom accommodation at Kisarika to house the form 5 centre. This will provide the first post ‘GCSE’ education in the area.
- We have received encouraging responses to our work to raise money for the Goat Project described in the last newsletter; I think everyone realises how crucial this is and this is where we are now focussing our efforts.
- The only bad news is that the rate of exchange has changed a great deal recently so our pounds do not go so far in Tanzania at the moment.
