Thank you to the International Women of Kampala....

The International Women's Organisation (IWO) in Kampala generously agreed to fund the equipment we needed for our Science Laboratory.

Just before Christmas I went to meet with Susan Brownings, treasurer of the IWO, at a school supplies shop in Kampala where I collected everything we needed...and the IWO took care of the bill!

I left with 3 microscopes, 2 bunsen burners, measuring cylinders, anatomical models of human brains/digestive systems/ears/eyes/hearts, a rain gauge, weather vane, hydrometer, thermometers...and a life size human skeleton!


As you can see, Susan and I got along famously with the skeleton! We have decided that the very first group of school pupils who use the Science Lab are going to be charged with the task of naming him/her! We'll keep you posted on the chosen name....

We can't thank the IWO enough for their generosity and we hope to see some of the International Women at the Centre sometime in 2007 so they can see their equipment in action!
