Week nine 14.06.09-20.06.09

Volunteers involved:
Sharon Mault (Manchester)
Osman Khan (London)
Chris Lord (Manchester)

What was the aim for the week?
· Continuation of foundations of KG2
· Digging foundations of KG1

What was achieved in the week?
· Drainage for site
· Pouring of the foundations KG2
· Block making commenced
· Soil sieving

Week nine was another great one! Sharon, Osman and Chris worked through the blistering heat and the pouring rain. Funny moments included Chris’ sleep talking about the ‘get me out of the blue tape’ (mosquito net!) and Osman’s impact on Noble “I AM A MAN!”
Hard work saw the foundations of KG2 finished, the bedford dug out of the bamboo swamps and a grasscutter for dinner!
Together with the community labour, labourers, football team and the volunteers week nine was great.

Osman “I feel have taken more from this project than I have been able to give.”

Chris “I’ve enjoyed my time on the project, it has given me a greater appreciation of the building project and the challenges faced by the site team.”

Sharon “It has been a fantastic opportunity to make a small contribution to such an amazing community.”
