sponsor a school in Vanuatu

Arriving in Lik Lik Village in Malekula Island we were welcomed by Edline George, a mother of five.  She said she was the local preschool teacher and being a teacher I asked if I could look at the school. She explained that she had done a four week training course and with her husband they had built a school.  This was a  simple grass shelter with a dirt floor.  Inside there was a hand made table,  a bench, a couple of magazines that looked like they had been washed up from a yacht, a black board and some shells for counting. I was impressed that she had taken such initiative without any external assistance. Returning to Australia we packed a box of teaching materials and sent it back to her.  Her response was over whelming.  With just a small effort  we could support Edline and make a difference.

To be a patron you simply pack a box with an assortment of preschool aids - scissors, pencils, paper, books, crayons, paints, brushes,  magazines to cut out,  glue, soft toys, games.  Many of these can be sourced from second hand shops. You  might be a family, a child care or preschool centre or an office team. You will be designated a village and you and your team collect teaching aids and ship your box directly to  the teacher at the designated village. Include a photo of you and your team and an address so they can write back.  Contact us if you would like to be a patron and we will send you your school contact in Vanuatu. Or you could send us a donation and our volunteers will collect and ship the package. Contact: kate@kennedywhite.net
