Schools report:

There were 5 people in the schools team Flora, June, Eileen, Anne and Ruth. They have had a wonderful time and were very touched by the children, their politenesss and obedience. They were paricularly touched when the children prayed for them.

The team worked at the orphanage and the school. The team took classes in conversational English where the children had the opportunity to speak english and ask about what life is like in England. The team very much enjoyed their time with the children and Eileen has said that she now has 200 more grand children.

At Fred Nicholson School (UK) Year 7, as part of their multiculture development, are working on creating a link with KMPC School in Bangalore.

Some of the activities they will be taking part in include:

developing a booklet all about Fred Nicholson School.
gathering information about Dereham, Norfolk - their local area.
producing a passport about themselves.
organizing a coffee morning at the school to raise funds for KMPC School.

June Brown, who works at Fred Nicholson School, will then take the money raised, booklets, passports etc. to KMPC school and hopefully will return with information from the children in India.

Fredrick and Flora, who are the nephew and niece of the KMPC school Principal visited Fred Nicholson School on 2nd May 2003 and created the first contact. They told the children about some of the differences and enjoyed their time at the school.
