Education
Today in St Mildred's Church Tenterden the Tenterden Rural Alliance of schools held it's annual celebration of education event.
The TRA is a groups of schools around Tenterden working closely together to achieve the best possible outcomes for our students, recognising that we are 'Stronger Together'
In Uganda, as with many other African nations, education is a privilege not to be taken lightly. Children and young people are desperate for an education and, in remote parts of the country, may walk several miles to school every day as well as working to help provide an income for their family. When we are in Uganda next week we will have the opportunity to visit schools where children are getting the education they desperately want and deserve and will be taking educational resources out with us to help those who are fortunate to be getting that education.
We used today to celebrate our working together in the TRA. But for some children in Uganda the mere fact they are getting an education is a celebration in itself.
