The majority of the children I'll be working with in Zulu Natal this summer are AIDS orphans, who face a two hour walk just to get to school in the morning- many of these children are also the heads of their household and responsible for their younger siblings, often preventing them from putting themselves first and going to school. To tackle this, the Gryphons Abroad team are travelling to South Africa to teach these children how to cycle and to provide them with their own bicycles, to make a good education more accessible for them. Furthermore, in the classroom, I'll be teaching the children music classes, alongside team sports and leadership skills. We will also be providing the school with learning resources so that we will have a lasting impact on the children of Zulu Natal, even after we've left. Any donation will be greatly appreciated!
