A small group of KES Pupils and staff will be visiting Thailand in July 2010. This will be the third expedition to the Maekok River Village Resort in Northern Thailand.
.
This is an outdoor pursuits holiday with a three day community project for a Hill Tribe Village School (Prapan-Aree Hongsakul School). We have previously built them, a Canteen extension, washrooms and a new classroom block
as well as provide instruction in English. This year we are hoping to raise £8000 to build them a new Library, that will be named after the late Rev. Rob Millington. The trip in 2008 was the last overseas trip that Rob took part in and he and Jan were very committed to helping this impoverished community. So far just over £7000 has been raised after the "May Day Madness" 10K run at the school and other fund raising activities.

If you would like to make a contribution to this very worthwhile project then please contact Gwyn Phillips at phillipsgm@kesw.org or go online to Just Giving at:

At the end of the expedition we will based for two or three days in Bangkok and on Friday 23rd July we hope to hold a reception and meal for parents and OW's in the area. Please contact Gwyn Phillips if you would like details and are able to attend.
