28th July 2017


Every trip to Arise School creates many new memories for us, especially of the children who now have this opportunity of an education. Having returned home this week after our most recent trip, we just wanted to share a few of those memories with you.

Tying the Knot at Arise!

21st July 2017


Since its very early days, part of the philosophy of Arise School has been that the school facilities and grounds should be available as a community resource when not in use as a school. On Saturday, 24th June, the school witnessed two people tie the knot. The most amazing thing was that both were well […]

Back at Arise!

We flew out from the UK earlier this week for another return trip to Arise School. As always, there was that moment of great relief when we got through immigration at Kilimanjaro Airport without being asked to open our suitcases! Invariably, our cases are overflowing with items for the school. On this occasion, they included […]

Realising A Dream! Part 3

30th June 2017


Our last two blogs have focused on the development of Arise School in terms of the growth in pupil numbers and in classrooms. In order for the children to learn, children also need books, both text and story books. These are often in very short supply in Tanzanian schools and this was certainly the case […]

Realising A Dream! Part 2

23rd June 2017


It was only a dream when they started to clear the ground for the first classroom to be built in 2012. From that small beginning, there are now seven completed classrooms at Arise School. The shared foundations for the final three classrooms have recently been started. As on previous occasions, the local community donated sand, […]
