Newsletter number 7 has been distributed on 30 August 2011. This newsletter reports an update of our executed activities since our visit of November 2010. This issue reports about a renovated well, the contruction of a library/multi-purpose building and latrines.

Our visit to Ghana in November 2010 was, again, a very fruitful and well organised visit.

Also thanks to Ayikoo Tours, owned by Melvin and Rebecca. Our driver Albert was amazing, and drove us safely from Accra to Sunyani.

After consulting the chief, teachers and Mr. Ananse the headmaster, they had a request to build a library/multifunctional room.

This room will be attached to the already existing 6 classroom schoolblock.

Construction is in full swing, as we speak! We will post some pictures of the construction on the website very soon. The next newsletter will be sent to you shortly.
