CHATHAM HALL IN SOUTH AFRICA 2012
CHATHAM HALL RETURNS TO SOUTH AFRICA
From March 11-23, 2012, Chatham Hall students, parents, faculty, and administrators will travel to Cape Town, South Africa,
- to collaborate with teachers and prepare meals at the Caravelle Primary School, a powerful force in the under-resourced Bloekombos Township,
- to clear land, prepare and cultivate gardens, and renovate greenhouses in various townships through Soil for Life, a dynamic self-empowerment agency, and
- to undertake environmental and community-relations projects at the Aquila Private Game Reserve.
This is the sixth year of the School’s unique social-service program, designed specifically for Chatham Hall through collaboration with Alterra Consulting, a dynamic, global-education organization in Washington, D.C.
These trips are strong steps by Chatham Hall in our long-term, strategic commitment to global education. This year the group will deepen Chatham Hall's work with community action groups, expand collaborations with schools in South Africa, and strengthen the friendships it has made in the past.
