GHANA | Weekend Recap 🇬🇭

Friday started off with a trip to Vickmans School to meet the children we will be working with over the next two weeks, followed by a trip to some historic sites including Black Star Square.

That evening the whole group had the opportunity to play against some locals in a friendly football match!⚽️

Then the team hit the road and headed to Cape Coast! One of the students had a very special birthday celebrating by the beach, and the whole group also headed to Cape Coast Castle to learn more about the history of the site.
