£500+ raised for Kiriani boys school, Chogoria

Staff, pupils and parents showed their generosity by helping to raise over £500 for Kiriani boys school, a new school recently set up in Chogoria and desperately in need of funds to buy basic school equipment and food for the pupils. The money was raised by selling Kenyan and homemade crafts during this years Christmas concert, holding an S6 coffee morning, selling ethical Christmas cards and raising money through selling Fair Trade products.
Eric Melvin, former Head Teacher of Currie Community High School is heading off to Chogoria next week to teach there for two months. He has kindly offered to take the cheque with him and present it to the school.
