I carried out a teaching project at Chikale Primary School, Nkhata Bay, Malawi. The focus was on developing creativity in the curriculum to accelerate children's progress in English. During the final week of the project some of the children from Standard 8 rewrote Cinderella to give it a Malawian twist. They called the play Faitherella!
Big thanks to Geoff for working with the children providing musical accompaniment!

If you'd like to volunteer in Malawi, check out: http://www.butterfly-space.com/ it's an amazing place to stay and offers cheap accommodation for independent volunteers and volunteers involved in projects at the Lodge.
Enjoy the play!
