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 :

Sunday 17th July - Travelling down to Livingstone

It is a beautiful morning, and it is warm! After a fantastic bbq last night, the Team are preparing for the long trek to Livingstone by bus. It should take around 6 hours so hopefully the roads are a bit better than the ones we have used to travel to the local villages.

When in Livingstone, we will be staying at a central Youth Hostel ironically named 'Fawlty Towers'. We are looking forward to meeting Zambia's version of 'Basil' and 'Manuel' as well as visiting one of the Wonders of the World, The Victoria Falls.

In the meantime, the Internet is up and running so all the photos have been updated. Please click on the link below to see all the photos from a very special Saturday 16th July.
