Message from Seraphin V Mbuya, Headteacher of Legho Primary School, Tanzania??..
?Dear Barbara Service, The Head Teacher of St John?s, Greetings from Legho to you and your staff and children. We are very glad to tell you that we have spent a happy time of at least two months with our lovely teachers from your School, Mrs McGee and Miss Christopher.

They have been working very hard here teaching English subject in our classes from standard one to six, demonstrating good methods of teaching English language to my staff and teaching adult education. At our school we have an evening class for youths and they learn English so they can communicate with their friends from Scotland when they visit Legho as they always do. Mrs McGee and Miss Christopher have been their teachers for the whole of their staying here. They have enjoyed very much the skills of teaching and they didn?t want them to return back to Scotland.

We end up by saying that we will pray hard to the lord so that our friendship will last longer and longer. With love, Seraphin.?




Many thanks for your continued support and co-operation.
Ms Barbara A Service
Head Teacher
