New term, new team!

As the new school term starts we are ridiculously excited that we have new people joining our team in Zambia!

At the end of July we were sad to say goodbye to our Gappies Alex and  Charlie after they shared three months with us, but we are thrilled to be welcoming our first Gappettes (we're fairly sure that's a real word!), Beth and Cathy. They will be staying with us for the next three months working alongside Dan and Melissa at the PHC community schools we partner with. Although they've only been there a couple of days it seems they have already got to know our neighbour Daliso! I'm sure you'll be hearing from them as soon as they've settled in to life in Zambia :-)

Not being content with just a couple of Gappettes we are also welcoming the Pearse family; Malcolm, Emily, Lucy and Albert.

Malcolm and Emily first visited Zambia in February of this year and they loved it so much that they have committed to retuning for two years as a family! Malcolm will be teaching at a local school in Ndola, where Lucy and Albert will be going to school too. And from January 2015 Emily (also a teacher) will be working alongside Dan promoting the quality of teaching and learning at our partner schools. 

All very exciting!
