As usual, Grady Bear was awarded to a Principal at the end of the Seminar. National Director, Nigel Le Page (below) was happy to award it to York Franchisee, Lindsay Goakes. As well as participating in most of the workshops during the day, Lindsay led one of the Youth Theatre workshops in the afternoon. Nigel praised her preparation, commitment and energy which, he said, was amazing! Grady will spend Production term with Lindsay, her family and her students and return to the next Seminar with a scrap book full of stories and pictures of his adventures. Well done Lindsay!
Grady Bear goes to a new home for the term!

ON TO LONDON

First stop in London was organised by Christina Holden at Holy Trinity School, East Finchley. Christina is a past volunteer with Village Africa. Teacher, Francesca White, is seen here with organiser and Portsmouth Helen O'Grady Principal, Andrea Ward.

On to Helen O'Grady, South East London and Principal, Judy Adams, had a special headgear class to welcome the ambulance! Hats off to Judy and her students!

Finally on to Croydon where Principal, Ian Brown, was rehearsing his end of year play, 'Paradesia.' The tropical sunshine certainly added to the atmosphere!
The ambulance is now on the home straight back to Portsmouth where it arrives to huge reception on Friday. There is still time to donate. Visit www.villageafrica.org.uk for more details.
