Dear BASIK,
I hope that you are all fine. For us we are going on well.
I have some few photos I was intending to take and some others now the toilet is complete.
The children would be very pleased to have some mosquito nets.
Thank you very much to everyone. I was also thinking of building a room for class eight next year?
Be blessed

Posted by Chris Normington
A member of BASIK, Build A School In Kenya, has received a prestigious award for demonstrating qualities associated with Diana Princess of Wales.
William Normington, 17 pictured here with Children’s Commissioner for England Sir Al Aynsley Green was presented with the Diana Award at a ceremony in London because of his compassion and a commitment towards improving the lives of others.
