Library Book Drive Finishes
Library books for the Escola Pre-Secondaria Foho Ailico English reading project have now started their long journey to East Timor. No more books will be collected.
Thank you to all those individuals and Bellingen Public School, NSW and Mundubbera State School, Qld for their help, we thank you for your generosity. Also thank you to Rotary Melbourne and Dili, Bob Glindeman and Darryl Mills for their help in organising this operation and Geoff Crouch and Chris Peddler of Crouch’s Transport Wagga Wagga for getting the books to Melbourne.
Once pictures of the books arriving at the school are available I will post them for all to see.
The books will be travelling by Rotary Container via the seaways from Melbourne to Dili and collected there by Jino Pereira, our hard working school contact. A safe journey and many more years of happy reading to them.
