It was looking a bit touch and go for a while but thanks to your kind donations we have been able to transform the school's non existent sports facilities into a junior version of Gladiators. Things over here can move quite slowly to say the least so to turn this around in such a short period has been a unique challenge. A particularly lively debate has ensued to the relative merits of different pieces of equipment. After a forensic inspection of the terrain a motion was passed that due to its slightly uneven camber Netball and Basketball would be too dangerous. Further investigations into the annals of the local schools cooberated the evidence as reports came in of afore mentioned injuries occurring on a similar terrain at a nearby school. Therefore Badminton and Volleyball were awarded sport du jour. Due entirely to your altruistic generosity the pupils at Mandella School can now 'exercise their bodies' as they say over here on:
5 footballs
A full 11 a side football kit
Training cones
Training bibs
1 Volleyball net and bespoke posts
6 volleyballs
1 badminton net and bespoke posts
8 badminton rackets and shuttlecocks
1 table tennis table and net
8 table tennis bats and balls
15 skipping ropes
Below as promised is photographic evidence of all the equipment being used. Unfortunately I don't have video footage of the extremely long presentation ceremony that preceded. But suffice to say I would like to pass the vast majority of the 'praise the Lords' onto you.
