HRSFC and Ndamase Secondary School

This North-South exchange program, between Hills Road Sixth Form College, Cambridge and Ndamase Secondary School, Eastern Cape, South Africa, has been trying to raise funds for the Ndamase choir to come to Cambridge. The initial intention was to bring the choir over for the annual carol concert but the visit has had to be postponed to 2010. The idea of the exchange is to encourage both schools to look beyond their immediate surroundings and engage in global issues. The fundraising being instigated now will also go towards a Solar Connect Project which aims to introduce solar powered PCs to the Eastern Cape Schools, allowing communication through the internet via the mobile phone grid. If you would like to make a contribution or find out more about events please contact the college directly at: cwelander@hillsroad.ac.uk.
