Flying high at FDC
Thursday brought great excitement at Mahali Pa Watoto School, where we have our office, as it was installation day for the 40ft container, kindly donated to us by Kenya Charity Sweepstake. The container will be used as a 'resource centre' - library, IT/study area and store - helping us find more space for the future.
The exercise was carried out with great professionalism and provided huge excitement for both children and adult spectators alike as the crane driver first had to lift the container into the compound and then swing it round and raise it up again in order for it to land safely on a support carefully measured out and built for the new container to sit atop an existing smaller container - providing valuable parking space and shade below. All we need now is a set of steps to access our wonderful new space and we look forward to branding the container with the team from Kenya Charity Sweepstake, in the near future!
The photographs say it all. We would particularly like to thank Kenya Charity Sweepstake, Mahali Pa Watoto School, the expert crane driver and Patrick our 'fundi' who has built the supports and will be finishing the steps, paint work and internal refurbishment of the container! We can't wait to get in and get working!
