As our group of teachers here madly rush around to get their last pieces packed, we take a look at some of the amazing items they are trying to squeeze in to their bags.
Karlene from Whitianga has netball uniforms and soccer balls donated by the community, Helen from Christchurch has a bunch of resources donated from her middle school, lots of kids toys and reading material from the Rotorua ladies (Helen and Vanessa), just to name a few. Not a lot of room for clothes...
The response from the communities have been fantastic already, and a huge thanks to the schools, friends and families for their support so far.
There is a lot of excitement (perhaps a bit of nervousness too!!) from our group, and we can't wait to tell you all about Mumbwa and the schools and new friends we are going to know so well in just under two weeks time.
Watch this space and wish us luck!

To Karlene, the "Rotorua Girls" - Helen, Kate & Vanessa - all the teachers Zambia bound and especially Sally
This is just a note to wish you all an awesome time in Zambia - I am sure it will be a life changing experience for you all.
Great to meet the "Rotorua Girls" recently and congratulate you all on organising such a great event. Pleased to hear it was so worthwhile for your fundraising.
Look forward to reading this blog each day and to hearing all about your experiences.
Bon Voyage - take care and make the most of every moment.
Love & best wishes from
Nicky & Noel Hewlett.
