Messengers Uganda
We are so fortunate to be twinning with Messengers Uganda. They are a choir from Kitettika School and church near to the capital of Uganda, Kampala. They have two choirs. The older choir has students aged 14 and over, and we were so excited when some of them were able to come and perform alongside us in May 2008! Our hope is that youngsters from both choirs will begin to form friendships, and that some may stay in touch by writing, by live web-links and even by visiting each other via choir trips in the future.
The younger choir is called 'The Little Messengers' and they are aged 8 - 14. This is led by Andrea Kasozi, and they have already exchanged letters with members of our own choir. It is great that the young people from both countries can begin to learn more about each other in this way. We have even attempted to perform some of each others songs - we like a challenge!!!
One of the most exciting aspects of Messengers UK is that we are able to raise funds for the children and their school in Uganda through our performances here in the UK.
