Noonkodin School

Unity College is proud to strengthen its links with Nookodin school in Tanzania. We have begun by sponsoring a student from the school using the money raised at our community events last year.

We have great pleasure in introducing Leparakwo. Our sponsorship provides Leparakwo with  a scholarship that will help him to gain the education he needs to fulfil his potential in life.

What can your form do to link with Noonkodin?
Remember this is a partnership, not simply a charity project.  (Although if you should ever want to send anything to Leparakwo or his class mates please make sure it is small (pens/socks etc, are always good) and use the school as your address. Communication can be a challenge and sometimes letters etc. can take a while by snail mail or go astray if they contain things that are too valuable).

The students at Noonkodin have very little spare time. They work in their  homes and often have jobs as well. So even if we don't hear from them very often we do know that Leparakwo is extremely happy and appreciative that he is being sponsored.

We also sent across our spare Beacon Break T shirts. As you can see they found a good home.

The science department is looking forward to taking the lead in raising the funds for next year. We are planning a Stand Up for Leprakwo event in May. Do have a talent or skill you want to showcase to our community. Start practising!

We can learn as much from our new friends in Tanzania as they can from us. Let’s get linking. Ideas (which you are ready to work on) to Ms Lambie.
