Sceggs Darlinghurst students settle into Uganda

To the Sceggs Darlinghurst Community, family and friends of all the students in Uganda.

Both teams are having a wonderful experience and being over whelmed with the generosity and friendly nature of the Ugandan People. The students have been very motivated in maximizing their experience. The open day at the school (on Tuesday) was a great day with many people from the school community joining the Sceggs team in celebrating the giving spirit of the Sceggs Community. Lots of dancing/singing and funny moments.

Today Team B is visiting Kampala and have been enlightened by the work being done at Bullrushes Orphanage. This afternoon the girls are getting traditional braides in their hair and having some time out.
Team A is doing project work at Kikandwa School and staying in tents on the school grounds.

We would love to tell you more but the world is waiting outside the door and this is where we all want to be.

The students and teachers are in good health and taking up all the challenges that come their way.

kind regards,
Peter Cross
Team B Antipodeans Leader
