UPDATE: We made it!
Not such a bright morning and a constant drizzle to accompany us, but we were undeterred and carried on regardless. Well done to all the team and a HUGE thank you to everyone who has sponsored us so far.
Six miles before morning registration! Yes, we're back and in the mood for a Commute. We have raised £10,000 in three years and we're itching to raise more for this fabulous charity.
A group of sixth formers and teachers from Sheffield High School will complete a six mile walk on Friday 27th June, starting at 6.15am and finishing at the school in time to begin a full day’s work.
Inspired by the story of Peter Msongelwa, an A level student in rural Zimbabwe who used to walk 15 miles to school each day, the group are raising money for the charity Makomborero, which is doing amazing work to help to young people in similar positions. If Peter can walk 15 miles before completing a day’s schooling, then walk 15 miles back home, we ought to be able to manage 6 miles in the morning before school.
Find out more about the charity (Makomborero) via the link on this page. You can also find out about the daily struggles, hardships and triumphs of the two incredible people who are making all this happen in Zimbabwe while bringing up their three young children, via their blog: www.albertynzim.blogspot.com
Thank you for taking the time to visit our team page. Please give anything you can - lots of little donations can add up to a BIG difference in these kids' lives.
