Welling School in Zambia 2011

On July 8th 2011, 10 Students and 4 Staff from Welling School will head for Zambia to coach some of the most underpriveleged children from government schools and orphanages, on how to play the game of Tag Rugby.

The Students have spent the last year raising money to fund the project themselves. Over £20,000 has been raised so far!

As well as coaching the children in Zambia they will also be training the School Staff and leave enough equipment and resources for the schools to continue playing and enjoying the game. Donations can be made using this 'justgiving' link :

Friday 15th July - Final Day of Coaching

Our final day of coaching and emotions were running high. The school teams for Saturday's Tournament had to be chosen today so it was a day of difficult decisions.
Those who were chosen were euphoric! Many told us that it was the greatest moment in their lives. Those who did not make the cut were obviously upset but the Welling Team worked tirelessly to ensure that the final coaching session was made special for them.
Tonight, the Welling Team are working hard in preparation for the Tournament that they have worked towards all week. It will be an early night for all tonight as its an early (ridiculously early!) start tomorrow. However, it will be a very special, exciting and emotional end to a memorable week.
