Trustees report

Rosemary and Jim had a very enjoyable trip to Kenya in March this year. We did not do eye camps this time because of previous problems with customs.

After Harrison’s visit last year when he carried back to Kenya 2 suitcases of baby toys, we were eager to visit the new Baby Class. We carried with us another 2 suitcases of baby toys and educational material for other classes. We checked before we went if tax needed to be paid for new toys and were told no. Certainly Harrison had no difficulty. Needless to say we spent one uncomfortable hour in the customs office, while Harrison, who was outside, negotiated our release! Our visit to the baby class was inspiring. The new teacher ( Geoffrey’s wife) was very well organised and lovely with the children. Harrison had ordered, for the children, a lovely climbing frame and slide and swings which arrived after we got home. He also set up, while we were there, a paddling pool and we watched the children having great fun.

Rosemary watched another science lesson with a new male science teacher where a microscope was used. There was only one microscope for the class so they certainly need more next year. We observed all the science equipment that Rotary had bought last year.

Jim did a first aid course with the teachers again.

The children were keen to show off skills so a sewing machine lesson was observed and a computer lesson, where pupils designed animated short games. The pupils were keen to learn cross stitch so R taught a lesson on that totally unprepared!

Before our visit the school computer room had been broken in to and doors and windows damaged. Thankfully nothing was taken as the computers are locked away elsewhere at night. The metal flag pole was taken. J and R decided to invest in 4 security cameras and a monitor, which were installed whilst there. R is now able to watch and monitor the junior high school building, dining room, lab and fields. Solar lights also give extra security.

R has decided that in view of her age and health the school should now take on more responsibility for sponsorship. She gave the school a list of the sponsors’ email addresses on condition only teachers could input these. While she was there she got all sponsored children to write on the computer to their sponsors and send a photo. The school will now do that twice a year and it has just been done. R will still monitor and collect yearly fees.

We visited new sponsored pupils at home and erected nets. During these visits, the subject of Secondary education came up. Increasingly the cost of travel, boarding, and other expenses is causing great problems for parents and many asked if we were going to add a day Secondary School. We discussed with Harrison if that was something he had considered and wanted, and the resulting possible costs. He gave us a design for 6 classes (We needed to build 2 a year for the new intakes). This was to be on 3 levels at a cost of £10,000 per class. After serious thought, and an email to the trustees, J and R on return home decided to go ahead. When completed this will make the School self sufficient and the charity will only deal with sponsorship money.

After an appeal in April to the sponsors we got £4300 and a reimbursement of gift aid of £5000, the foundations were started. R and J decided to personally bridge any gaps in finance to ensure

building continued. R was unhappy with a 3 storey building because of steep stairs and disabled access by ramps, so a 2 storey building with 3 classes on each level was agreed .This meant that 3 classrooms had to be built this year which increased this year’s costs. These classrooms have now been completed and look superb. Last week the license was granted and the school will now be advertised countrywide for the January intake. Boarding will only be for distant pupils.

R and J visited the Rotary in Kwale with H and visited their school project on a 2 hour drive on unmade roads! R also visited the Catholic Church and inspected the toilets we had paid for 2 years ago.

Fundraising this year has been much reduced partly due to the increased costs of having a stall at the Horbury show which we are not doing any more. We had a fund raiser at the church and at Flockton and R did a few film shows.

HSBC has decided as from October not to charge £5 a month for the account.

We plan to ask the sponsors in the November email for any further donations towards next year’s 3 classrooms?
