Art Show

Congratulations to our students on contributing to the first art show in three years! Thank you to those families who came along to this fun event last week. We looked at artworks, we heard student music performances, we ate sausages and cakes, created tiny art and went on scavenger hunts! 

 

If you missed it, here is an express virtual tour of the artwork:

We are so glad to have once again been able to raise much needed funds for Friends of the Hudad:

 

Friends of the Hudad (FOTH), would like to extend huge thanks to the CHPS staff and community for supporting our efforts in Ethiopia through the recent Art Show BBQ, cake stall and raffle.  FOTH spent 5 years funding and constructing a school for the remote Hudad community near Lalibela, in the Amhara region of Ethiopia, which was completed in 2019.  
 
Since then, Covid, protracted civil unrest, fallout from the war in Ukraine and yet again drought and famine on the Horn of Africa, has made communication with and life for our community extremely dire and particularly difficult for FOTH to monitor and maintain the school. FOTH has for the last 3 years been providing basic emergency aid to the Hudad community through funding the purchase and distribution of grain and other essentials via trusted local partners - we have literally been putting food on their tables.
 
Your support at the Art show will enable real emergency aid within days, with no administration or intermediary costs, thank you.
 
Thanks also to Sam and staff at Bakers Delight on Queens Parade for supporting FOTH again with the supply of bread.
 
Thanks,
Conrad
