Overview
Its been another very busy few 2013 school year at our school where
we've added another 10 children to our program, making our total
number 107. We're also about to extend our nutrition program to
provide the children with milk, essential fats/oil while we also ran a
highly successful Sumer Camp, and Teacher Training last August. In
addition we've now fundraised 52,000 euros (including 31,000 which
we used to buy the land) to build our new primary school. We need
between 30-45,000 more to build this badly needed school. We are
humbly asking you if you can help in anyway with this fundraising.

End of 2013 School Year- Christmas Celebration
Of Stella's 1,440 euro we used 120 euro for a nutritious, celebratory Christmas meal which
we held at the end of the 2013 school year on 20 November. This doubled-up as an end of
school year christmas party where we gave children awards for their work at school. It also
served as a leaving party for our much loved volunteer Jonny.
This meal managed to feed all of our children including their parents or guardians. As the
kids get very little protein in their diet we bought and slaughtered a whole goat for this
celebration meal. We also got a donation of 70 euros from a British teacher trainer in
Mombasa named Smriti Sharma who bought the rice. See photos below.
Above: see the giant pot of byriani being prepared for serving.

Fred's account of the day:
“We had an amazing day and it was fun for everybody, the kids were so happy. The
children and guardians had most nutritious meal in years and everybody feel so happy
to be involved in help poorest children get best education. Jonny got a big card
designed by Hopsyg kids and signed by alL the kids and thank you message written
by Mwaka (sponsored in a private boarding school) and presented to Jonny by
eloquent gentleman kanoti (sponsored in a prviate boarding school) in English in front
of guardians. Everybody liked it more than 100 people kids and parents and 3 guest
attended.”

Sumer Camp- Overview
Our Summer Camp & Teacher Training: David and Deirdre had been linked with Alan through
their mutual friends in Galway while Rocio's friend - Clea Otero had previously volunteered and
fundraised at our school while visiting Mombasa in 2010. They were all very keen to volunteer and
help but we had to be sure they could volunteer in a sustainable and effective method while also
adapting to and learning about the cultural differences involved in volunteering/working in Kenya.
We really needed teacher training for our two Kenyan teachers to bring the benefits of modern,
evidence-based education to our children. Therefore, after discussion we decided to pair this up
with an extra-curricular summer camp for the kids. With the volunteers leading this fun summer
camp would allow the children to develop holistically in art, music, PE, educational
movies/cartoons, singing, dancing and board games. This would also allow the
volunteers/teachers to build a relationship with the Kenyan teachers allowing the teacher training
to run successfully. After lots of planning (see program schedule on page 19) we decided that
volunteering in August would be best as this was a school holiday month in Ireland, Spain and
Kenya.
Our three volunteers: This summer camp had been planned and organized over the previous
five months, coordinated by Alan, Fred, Jonny (our long-term German volunteer) and our three
summer camp volunteers. These three volunteers were Deirdre Cryan- a qualified and
experienced primary teacher (Galway, Ireland), secondly, David Quinn, Deirdre's partner- a
qualified mechanical engineer with lots of experience and knowledge of sport. Thirdly was Rocio
Ruiz, a qualified and experienced primary teacher from Spain.
Teacher training: Despite our current two teachers (Fatuma and Sabina) being excellent, this
was a very good important priority for us due to our preschool teachers having being trained in
traditional, didactic teaching methods. Sabina (Fred's sister) did not have any training although
she had been volunteering at our school one year so knew and loved each child and had learnt so
much about teaching on-the-job, making her a great teacher. Fatuma was trained in preschool
education and had also volunteered for three months at the start of our program. Modern training
would obviously have a huge knock-on effect on quality of learning for our children while also
empowering our dedicated teachers. Again, we must thank Sarah and her committee in Belgium
for their excellent hard work in paying for our two teacher's salaries.
After much consultation we decided the best topics to focus on in the training would be:
• Making learning/teaching resources in class
• Educational Play theory
• Educational games vs games
• The child-centered approach
• Children with disabilities
• Individual, pair and group work
• Using ICT as a learning tool
• Positive behaviour reinforcement

Sumer Camp- Our First School Prjojector
The Extra-curricular Summer Camp: This element of the program paired up nicely with the
teacher training's focus on educational play. Here, arts and crafts, playground games,
sports games, educational movies/cartoons, singing, dancing and board games were
used as topics to train the teachers while also giving the children lots of extra-curricular
activities for the summer camp. As part of the summer camp we also had three educational
trips, two trips to Haller Park animal reserve/zoo and one trip was to the local public beach
called Pirates. These were paid for by our volunteers and for slum children to get trips to
these locations was a one in a million opportunity, which they will never forget! Thanks again
David, Rocio and Dee for your absolute dedication to the program.
Donations: In addition to this our volunteers filled their luggage bags with lots of learning
resources (preschool stationery, art and craft materials, sports equipment, etc) to deliver to
our school. Deirdre and David managed to source two laptops and one projector to donate
to our school. Having these allowed us for the first time to introduce our kids and teachers to
using ICT as a learning tool. The volunteers brought many educational dvds and trained our
teachers in how to use these with the kids. In addition to this, when Deirdre and David
returned home they fundraised over 4,000 euros for our plan of building a new primary
school.
Above: We see our Kenyan teachers using the projector and laptop that Dee and David
donated to our school. As people involved in children's education know, audiovisual
technology (including educational songs, games, dancing, puzzles, etc) are excellent tools to
help the children learn in a fun way. This also makes the job easier for the teacher. Although
we had given Sabina and Fatuma small bits of training on computers Dee, Rocio and David
provided extra training on how to use the projector with educational DVDs and software.

soda cans, used magazines, etc.). She
also brought an art and crafts manual
for preschool teachers.

Here Deirdre and David taught
teacher Fatuma how to do art and
design with very little resources.
Then, they all helped the children to
create this literacy-based art and
then they displayed it in the school
classrooms.

Our Amazing Volunteer- Jonny
Above photo: Jonny (Johannes Leberer), our long-term German AFS volunteer has
volunteered with us for one year now. Jonny's friendly, fun-loving, lovable personality helped
him integrate rapidly in Mombasa culture which allowed him to start teaching at a high quality
level, at an early stage. He now speaks Swahili and he is known as a local by all the people
from Mombasa city, especially those from Mshomoroni and Old Town.
Jonny spent the first week of the Summer Camp with the three volunteer teachers giving them
orientation- showing them around mombasa, mshomoroni and the school. Without his
excellent help we would not have been able to run this summer camp program.
The above photo shows how he loves to play with the children and how loved he is by the
children for his great sense of humour and playfulness! Unfortunately, we lost Jonny in
December 2013, who was replaced by another AFS volunteer-Sven. We are truly grateful to
Jonny for his amazing work teaching KG2 children in numeracy, literacy, environment and
science. Not only has he done this but he also organized two fundraisers and sourced 11,000
euros to help us build our badly needed primary school. Furthermore, he helped us with
administration in organizing digital social enquiry records, finance records, child registration,
Page 20

etc. And to think he's completed all of this at a young age of 19!!! We know Jonny is going to
achieve amazing things in his life and career and we hope he will keep us in his heart while
back home in Germany. He will definitely be in our hearts.

10 More Children Complete our 3-year Preschool
After three hard years of preparation and nurture at our school the below children were
accepted into Baptist public school. They started in KG1 with no literacy or numeracy. This
was a celebratory day when 10 of our KG3 children got accepted into a public primary school,
after doing an entrance exam. These children are kindly sponsored by our German AFS
volunteer- Jonny Leberer at a total cost of 550 euro. The government pay for the school
running costs while Jonny sponsored them in paying for books, uniform, one educational trip,
stationery, shoes and emergency medical costs.
The standard of education in these public schools is poor due to poor management and
funding but its still a progression of their education. Hopefully we will build our own primary
school soon and then we will be able to provide all of our children with a high quality primary
education.

The below are photos of the children taken at Hope
Preschool with their grandmother and guardians on the
day of their interview for the public school. This was an
important and proud day for children from such poor
backgrounds so they all met Fred in our school before the interview/exam. We were very
confident the children would get admitted as our KG3 teacher Sabina had done great
preparation with them.

Yoga Fundraiser and Nutrition with Africa Watoto
Stella Bili (in photo below) had volunteered in Mombasa, Kenya for 2.5 years and only
returned to her home in Greece in 2013. Alan met Stella in Mombasa and they shared their
stories on charity projects. Stella set up her own UK registered charity called Africa Watoto
(children) to directly fund the most needy orphan projects in Kenya
(www.africawatoto.org.uk).She had initiated some great programs in nutrition and livelihoods
with an orphanage north of Mombas called Grandsons of Abraham.
Fortunately for us she chose Hope Orphan Pre School as her new recipient for her
fundraising with Africa Watoto. As she loves yoga and has lots of friends who take part in
yoga she decided to run a Yogathon in Westminster, London, where she had now moved. Her
friends at Share, Love, Yoga organized this event with her on Sept 14 2013. The day
consisted of 108 sun salutation challenges led by experienced yoga teachers- Lizzie and
Catia! People participated at their own level of exertion.
The total raised was 1,440 Euro which will be used for a nutrition program at our school. As
many of our children are malnourished we have prioritized this to help these children develop
healthily. The main food stuffs and nutrients missing from a slum dweller's life is protein, fat
and some essential vitamins and minerals. We decided to buy powdered milk and oil and add
this to their daily porridge mixes at school to increase the nutrition value.

Lilian- in need of Sponsorship!
Lilian (second from the left) is 15 year old girl who has been on our program
since we started 5 years ago. She is from one of the worst-off broken families in
the city but still has great academic potential. We worry because she is very
vulnerable in the slum, especially at this age. We think the best option to protect
her would be to send her to a boarding school where her brother is also. She
would come to visit home every 1.5 months. I've been looking for a sponsor for a
while now but no luck.

Home Visit to Shadrack Ziro's House
Above: Our three, hard-working summer camp volunteers go to visit one of our KG3 children
(Shadrack Ziro) at his very poor mud house. They went with Fred to learn about the living
conditions of our children. Many other neighbouring children have come in for the photo.
Shadrack was out fetching water when they visited.
Page 28

Shadrack's Broken Arm
Here we see Shadrack again, this time at
Joacham hospital after he broke his arm
on a motorcycle taxi with Fred. During
January Fred has to do much driving with
our 44 primary school children, taking
them to school meetings, taking them to
buy their uniforms, stationery, books,
shoes, etc. The cheapest method of
transport is using motorcycle taxis but,
these are not a safe method of transport.
Fortunately Shadrack is ok now. Excuse
the photo partially showing Shadrack's
face. Also in the photo at the hospital with
Shadrack is Fred (with the green shirt).

Two More House Viists to Select our New Children for KG1
This photo shows just how poor our children are. Here Fred takes a visit in January 2014 to
visit some of the poorest children's homes to help select which children should be prioritized
for entrance to our KG1 class for January 2014.

Fred- a Great Yet Humble Leader
Above: We see Fred (centre in white shirt) holding one of regular meetings with the
guardians, parents, teachers, children and our new volunteers. Fred has to keep everybody
informed and focussed on keeping our costs down and ensuring the children are put first in
every case possible. In this case he was planning and discussing with everybody the plans of
the Summer Camp program. It was vital that everybody understands the aims and objectives
of the summer camp as this is a sensitive project between two very different cultures - the
Westerners and the Kenyans.
Where would we be without Fred's dedication and excellent management skills!

School Building Fundraiser
We were lucky enough to have raised 1,908 euro in a fundraiser in Alan's hometown of
Kilmaine, County Mayo, Ireland. This was organized and lead by Kilmaine's Pastoral council
lead by Patsy Shaughnessy and many more, including Alan's family.
The proceeds are being held in our primary school account to fund the building of our badly
needed primary school. Currently we have raised 11,000 euros (in our bank account) with
another 18,000 fundraised and pledged by our volunteers/friends. We hope to raise another
25- 30,000 euros to help build this high quality school. With the thanks of Danny Hamilton
from National Irish Bank's Third World Education fund we have already purchased the land
and paid for the architect, lawyer and structural engineer drawings (27,000 euros).

An Appeal for Builders
to Build Our New Primary School
Our Progress on the Building and Fundraising
We are getting closer to realizing our dream of building our own primary school.
We already have our own preschool but we need to desperately search for
sponsors to send our kids to primary school every January. We have already
bought and paid for the land (31,000 euros) for our new school. We now have
fundraised a further 21,000 Euros which is sitting in our Kenyan bank account.
Our three builder quotations put the cost of building our new primary school at
68,000 euros. However, we believe we can get this cheaper as this was their
first quote, some hard-cash bargaining should reduce the price! So, we need to
fundrais anoter 30 – 45,000.
So, we now need a builder/engineer who can come and supervise the building
and project manage the building and funding. If you know of anybody
experience, committed and interested please let us know.

A Serious Home Visit to Kahindi
Above: Kahindi is being sponsored in Chris Prep primary school and has an amazing
academic ability. Unfortunately as with many of our children they are often forced to miss
school to help their guardians or parents selling or working. When Fred heard the Kahindi was
missing school he went to his house and found him helping his mother selling charcoal.
Above their having an ugali lunch. Fred had to explain to Kahindi and his mother that it was
vital that Kahindi return to school despite their desperate need for income.
After a serious talk with Fred, Kahindi has promised he wont miss school again. Lets hope he
doesn't and fred will continue following up with him to make sure he goes to school!
