Story
Christmas Day Swim in aid of Malawi 2018 trip
On 25th December Rachel and her Uncle Tony, will be braving the cold waters of the sea at the annual Exmouth Christmas Day Swim, 11am, Exmouth Beach.
They would be grateful for your help by giving a small contribution to this swim which will go towards Rachel’s fundraising for her school trip to Malawi in July 2018.
Whilst in Malawi Rachel will spend the first 10 days of the visit living and working in the village of Mtunthama in the rural Central Region of Malawi. The community of Mtunthama is centred around the Anglican church and Hospital, AMAO Orphanage, the Primary school and our partner school All Saints Community Day Secondary. Rachel will have the opportunity to work on a number of community projects, such as building and decorating school classrooms, helping in the orphanage or kindergarten and doing lab work in the hospital. Rachel might be involved in repainting classrooms and to building new classrooms at local primary schools, and running sports events for local children
