Thank you again to everyone who contributed to the success of the auction!

Teachers and Staff put on Dwankhozi Week

4/27/2014

 
This week, we are holding our third QAE philanthropic fundraiser, which we are calling Dwankhozi Week. 

At Monday Morning Meeting, we will launch the week with a Skype visit with a few teachers and leaders from the African school. 

Throughout the week, classroom teachers will share videos, pictures and stories of our first visit, introducing all of our QAE students to the students we met in Zambia.  Families will also have the opportunity to share in this learning by visiting our Dwankhozi Partnership page.

In addition to learning about our new friends this week, we are hoping to raise funds to support our partnership by collecting money in classroom coin jars, holding a bake sale and selling Zambian fabric bracelets. There will also be a letter that comes home asking QAE families to consider making a financial contribution to this partnership.

The QAE staff has appreciated the support QAE families have shown this partnership already this year, and thank you in advance for any additional support you are able to provide this week.
