2018 - Second Year of Operation at Discovery School

Second year at Discovery School, and the only photo I can find is of Cairo checking out the classroom at the end of the year when we were packing up I think.

At the end of the year Discovery School decided there was no room for us in the new building being built in town, and so a frantic search was on for a new home. Some of the kids from the class helped check out the playground and sandpit of our new home, Burnside Primary School.

With a full class and sustainable programme an agreement was signed between FRENZ and Burnside Primary School to formalise our partnership in running this great bilingual class.
