Maucale School’s New Library

It may not look like much – but this tiny library is a massive step forward for Macuale School.  Until now, there has been absolutely no books available for the children.  Our previous attempts to introduce libraries to the schools have resulted in books packed away in boxes in the teacher’s room and never used.  This library is a direct result of the training course the teacher’s attended last month.  We couldn’t ask for better proof that the course was successful.

Look out Kids!

This is one of 14 teachers heading home to her remote village after the 3 day training workshop in Dili.  She’s heading back with a headful of knowledge and an armful of resources.

Thanks to Rotary Club of Melbourne for funding all of the costs of the workshop, teachers’ travel, food and accommodation.
