How about spending a part of teacher's summer holiday at school? Quite crazy, isn't it? But I have tried it and I can't appreciate it more.

I have been following their activities since then, I was at meetings with Kenyan coordinators as well. And I have to add, I admire what they have done on Rusinga Island at Victoria Lake , the project called Island of Hope.
