Today we have to inform our volunteers and supporters of the sad passing of Shumas founder Stephen Ndzerem, a true humanitarian who worked tirelessly for the people of Cameroon 💔 Our deepest sympathies go to his wife and family and all who knew and loved him.

And that’s a wrap! One new classroom funded and decorated, 7 additional classrooms and railings refurbished, painted inside and out with doors and shutters also primed and painted. It was a big task but we did it 🎉

Then a lovely afternoon having fun with the school children 🤩

[AidCamps @aidcamps]

Penultimate day of work. Started off with a wake up call of Christmas carol singing!

More painting murals on the walls. Then a fantastic trip to two previous projects.

Then a trip to town to pick up sports supplies for our Sports Day with the children tomorrow.

Back to work in earnest today. Plenty of sanding, priming and painting and an interesting talk on Nepalese culture by a professor at the local university.

Then the lovely news that 2 of our volunteers became grandparents this morning so we had a toast to the new baby. 👶

Lovely day doing jungle activities in the National Park. Jeep safari where we saw deer, monkeys and the spectacular Asian rhino followed by a canoe ride complete with numerous crocodiles and water birds. We completed our evening with a display of traditional Tharu dancing.

[AidCamps @aidcamps]

Lovely day visiting 2 important temples. Firstly the massive 1000+ step climb to the Kali temple. Then a quick lunch and on to the temple town of Devghat.
We left a traditional offering in the holy river in memory of the wife of a treasured ex-volunteer who sadly passed recently.

Day 4 complete. More painting and sanding. The team also decided to tidy up some of the older parts of the school, not scheduled to be done on this project. Ended the day with a momo making class taught by the excellent kitchen staff. What a week! Now for some R&R! #Volunteer

[AidCamps @aidcamps]

Day 3 completed. Another classroom painted inside and out and time to join in with school exercises. Followed by a trip to the tailor to order some hand made clothes and a wonderful talk from the lovely Renuka Dhakal on the education system and status of women in Nepal. 🇳🇵

[AidCamps @aidcamps]

Day 2 of our latest project and the first classroom is painted inside and out. Then an afternoon visit to 2 former AidCamps International projects.

[AidCamps @aidcamps]

Our latest group of #volunteers were up bright and early to travel from Kathmandu to Sauraha. Looking remarkably good for circa 6am in the morning. Lots of excitement on board!

[AidCamps @aidcamps]

So our friends from @AkzoNobelUK have headed off back to the UK and Ireland and our latest group of #volunteers have just arrived, ready to start their own adventure!

[AidCamps @aidcamps]

A bit of well-deserved, post project sight-seeing for the @AkzoNobelUK #volunteers before they fly back tomorrow. A busy Boudhanath Stupa!

[AidCamps @aidcamps]

More photos of the classrooms being handed over this morning in Devitar with our fantastic @AkzoNobelUK volunteers 🎉

[AidCamps @aidcamps]

This morning (Nepali time) the Baffa @AkzoNobelUK volunteers officially handed over their completed classrooms! They took the opportunity to go back to school themselves - you’re never too old to learn 🎓

[AidCamps @aidcamps]

One of the exciting things to do, as the end of every project approaches, is to look at what we might be able to support next. Our Co-ordinator Gillian, took the opportunity to explore possible projects with a local women’s empowerment group.
