Tanzania Trip to Support Vulnerable Massai Children

A team of 19 Lower Sixth pupils accompanied by five staff members recently visited our partnership school in remote, rural Tanzania. Caterham School has supported the Lerang’wa lunches project for 12 years now, providing essential aid to ensure vital, every day, food provision for vulnerable Maasai children. The expedition was such an adventure and the relationships our pupils developed with the Lerang’wa community was just wonderful to observe. Caterham pupils taught various subjects, including lacrosse techniques on the playing field and prime numbers in the maths classroom. The Tanzania 2018 pupil team have also hit a fundraising record, making the most money for the project in their 2017-18 year of fundraising efforts than any previous year! Such funds will have a huge impact on the provision of food for education at Lerang’wa school. Dr Rachel Avery.
