The relationship between my son Rudy and Jason is such a special one, even though they have never met it\u2019s a beautiful thing to watch two 8 year olds communicating via pen! Even though they are thousands of miles apart they speak of the same things, mainly football\u2026 which quite frankly is wonderful! Rudy and I are looking forward to the day we can get out to Nsobe and they can have a kick about together for real.<\/p>

Establishing a personal contact with the students we are supporting is a vital process and mutually beneficial to the student and supporters. The letters I receive each term from Nsobe School show that Foster is making significant progress in English, with improving grammar, spelling and punctuation as well as writing in more detail. The system also gives the student time to reflect on what has been happening in their local areas, e.g. the effect of Covid or what they have gained from school trips. It is clear that Nsobe has an excellent Leader in Fiona Tomlinson and that the Headteacher and staff are doing an excellent job in establishing high standards in a short period of time. The addition of carpentry and sewing as extra subjects will further enhance the school\u2019s reputation. I am delighted that I have been able to support such a positive charity over the last five years. I am sure that further progress will be achieved\u201d Rob Wilkinson, MA ( supporting Foster Mulcochi, Grade 11)<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Teacher Aid is an excellent charity which supports Nsobe Community School at both primary and secondary levels. It\u2019s a real lifeline to the children there. My experience is that it is extremely well run by some very hard-working and dedicated volunteers who have transformed the school with computers, toilet blocks, trips for the kids etc etc For me as a supporter it is really lovely to get letters from Cathy, the very bright girl that I support at the school, as well as pictures and newsletters from the school.

It gives me great pleasure to provide a brief testimonial on behalf of T. I am a retired Professor in Paediatric Endocrinology at Cardiff University and have been a clinically active paediatrician for 40 years. I have run a training programme for paediatricians in sub-Saharan Africa on behalf of the European Society for Paediatric Endocrinology in Nairobi and have had the honour of visiting many African countries to teach, examine and undertake clinics in my specialty.<\/p>

It has been my privilege to sponsor T\u2019s education over the last two years, through a monthly donation to Teacher Aid, a committed and successful charity which supports Nsobe School to nurture village children in rural Zambia. I understand that T wishes to train to be a doctor. I correspond with her and she writes well-constructed and informative letters about her life in school. I will be happy to provide any ongoing general guidance she may require in pursuing her career goals. From what I have learnt from those involved in running Nsobe School, I anticipate that she will make an excellent doctor.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
