About Me

We have recently applied and been successful in getting jobs at 'Amano Christian' School in Chingola, Zambia. Since getting married we have been praying about the possibility of working abroad and we now feel the timing and opportunity is right. So what will we be doing? Jona is going to be teaching science and Kerry is going to be doing youth work amongst girls in the dorms. We will be leaving in September. We would love for you to keep up to date with what we're up to!

Half Term. woop!

It's been quite a long tough week this week. Been a few issues in the girls dorm which have been challenging and quite sad but I'm so happy that God has been with me and the other staff and things have been resolved   :-)

But the good news is that we had 'Quiz and Cakes' last night at T4:12 which was great fun and a good ending to the first half of this term. And Jona went to a friends house on site to watch Zambia play football on Wednesday against Ghana in the African Nations and they won! Which means they'll now be going into the finals against Ivory Coast! woop! The picture below shows lots of students cramming into the house with the TV!!


We haven't  made any specific plans for half term apart from relaxing and visiting friends.

I wanted to ask whether anybody reading this might have unwanted dvds, board games, decent primary/teenage clothing and specifically shoes which are in fairly good condition. Also, any craft materials etc. We are returning to the UK in April and would love to make up some parcels to send out here for the school. So please let me know and we could try and make a plan of how to collect it from you if possible.
Thanks
Jona and Kerry x

    Hi :-) in doing research for my blog I found yours and couldn't believe it that you are literally just down the road from me in Chingola too. Hope you are having a good half term break and settling in well into Zambia.

    We are going to get some bits together for you and leave them with Tony and Di. I think you are having lunch with them so you can collect it then.
