Keep on Smiling

This week's post and photo come courtesy of Brother Tony. He sends a monthly email newsletter that gives updates on his travels, projects and what's been happening at the school over the previous month.

Big news this month! He and his team have been working for the past several years toward transitioning the school to a solely secondary educational institution and they continue to make great strides toward this goal. They have begun the placement of the younger students in other local primary schools in order to provide a secondary school that will have the ability to educate all of the secondary students in the area. 

St. Francis Secondary School will soon reach this goal, with incoming classes of students grades 8 to 12 beginning in January 2011. Congrats Brother Tony!



This month's letter ended with the following P.S.

"When in the States I shopped around for a dust-mop (not found in Zambia) and came with this Walmart yellow mop in my case. When Grade 8 Susan came to my room to return borrowed books, I put the mop on her head. She looked so well I asked her if I could take the photo and send it out on the email. I hesitate now to use the mop on the floor. The girls love to model it."
