My Travel Story

by: Grace Duerden Start Date: Jun 11, 2017 - End Date: Jun 10, 2018
I have been given the oppportunity to travel to Woe in Ghana next summer with my school. As a school we are working with an organisation called African Adventures that work with schools in the U.K and African countries. We will volunteer in local schools, working with children of all ages teaching football and other sports activities aswell as basic english literacy skills. I believe that us as students will learn a great deal from teaching them, including their language and way of life.
Another part of the trip ia an educational visit to Cape Coast castle. This was one of the "slave castles" build on gold coast of west Africa. We will learn about the history an its significance.

The trip takes place in July 2018, on the 15th June 2017 I am participating in a 5k run inorder to fundraise as much money as I can because the trip costs £1800. If you could donate to my page and show your support that would be great! Thanks for reading, Grace.
