‘Tagging you’ this Christmas


Christmas gifts are already starting to fill the shelves! We are thrilled to show you our new Christmas card designs, which this year are accompanied by some fun and festive gift tags. So get down to the shops and fill your bags, to make sure that far flung friends receive your greetings and news, this side of Christmas! Our thanks to Laura Cuthbert for once again devising these seasonal and original designs, some with a Kenyan twist. You can find both cards and tags on sale at: KPS, HPS, Zawadi, Westland Sundries, Utamaduni, Langata Link, Fairseat, The Shop, Shabby Shack, Gorgeous Hair, KCC Pro Shop and periodically at the organic market at Marula Mercantile on a Saturday. Christmas cards will sell in packs of five, and Christmas tags in packs of ten.

If you are in Karen, then you can also give Charlie Taylor a call on: 0733 614796, as she will keep a stock to sell direct.

Manna from Heaven


We never cease to be amazed by spontaneous acts of kindness. Recently, FDC was the recipient of the most astonishing, varied and extremely generous gift. The delivery came from a group of people from “Xapo” in Switzerland who had been visiting Kenya as part of an offsite company event. They wished to give something to needy people here and had been supplied with an MPESA account through which to purchase these articles. They'd been advised as to what would be most welcome and useful and you would be amazed to see what we, as just one of several recipients, have received. The items were grouped under the following categories: clothing, foodstuffs, household, linen, school equipment and toiletries.

On behalf of the entire student body, the committee and numerous thankful parents  – thank you to all those at "Xapo" in Switzerland!
