Latest News about Suji By Maureen Mescall

Hello Again!   It has been quite some time since I posted on this site so I would like to update you on the recent as well as the forthcoming happenings.

As you are aware from other posts all the teachers returned to Ireland at the end of November 2011.  Peadar stayed on in Suji and continued to film different aspects of life in the village.  Following completion of the filming he edited about forty hours of film down to one hour.  He will premier this film Hands on Tanzania

in his home town of Manorhamilton, Co. Leitrim on April 28th. 2012 and we look forward to seeing it and also to meeting up with the builders and some of the teachers who are in Ireland at the moment.

Aaron returned to Suji in Mid January 2012 to teach Mathematics for another year in Suji Malindi Secondary School.  He is also overseeing construction work on two classrooms at the moment.  Aaron is being sponsored by our charity Tanzanian Village Renewal and we are also funding the work on the classrooms.

Aaron is also managing the soccer team in the school and we are sure he is a great asset to both the school and the community.

Peadar has decided to go back to Suji also and is returning on May 3rd. 2012 and will teach English to the pupils in Malindi Secondary, Primary School children and anybody from the village who wishes to learn English.  Peadar will be sponsored by our charity Tanzanian Village Renewal until the end of the school year 2012.
