On Wednesday 16th October, children from the Khulula Choir from Eswatini (formerly known as Swaziland) spent the afternoon with us in Edenderry. The children are visiting Northern Ireland with the aim of raising money to help those without food or regular meals in their home country. We agreed to help by taking part in the ‘One by One’ challenge. Every child was given a small cup with the task of encouraging our friends and family to help us place as many coins as possible into that cup. Collectively the school raised an incredible £1,100 pounds meaning 1,100 children in Estwatini will be assured of a proper meal!
As well as reminding us all of the importance of helping others less fortunate, the visit also provided our children with a unique opportunity to meet with children from another country and experience their culture. You can enjoy some of the videos and images of the choir's visit below.
On behalf of the choir and those who will receive a meal from this, we want to say a huge thank you to everyone who donated to this event.
