Our next get together is a real favourite of mine – the Invictus and cultural immersion night! This will be held on Friday the 16th of November at the Duncraig campus running from 4pm – 8pm.
The evening will begin with a look at the different languages of South Africa and in particular Afrikaans and Xhosa where we will learn a few common phrases to help us when we are there.
This will be followed by some pizza (and other options) before we settle in to watch the movie Invictus which is set during the time that apartheid was being dismantled. The fabulous Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon play the roles of Nelson Mandela and Francois Pienaar focusing on their critical interaction in the healing process of the South African nation.
The evening will conclude at 8pm.
Keep going with your fundraising activities. We are hearing some great stories and cant wait to hear you share your experiences on this night.
Don’t forget that we will also be collecting running shoes and football boots as part of our donations. Start spreading the word. Last year we took over 200 pairs of shoes!
Mr Thomas
Can we start to bring in the shoes and clothes collected please?
Hello,
Yes, this is great if you wish to do this. If you bring them in to Mr Merrifield in Alethea or Miss Everett in Timae at Duncraig (or Mr Thomas in the PE offcie at Carramar).
Kind regards,
Mr Merrifield
