We’re so proud to see the Cheshire Fire Cadets begin their adventure to Nepal after two years of fundraising to support the construction of the new classrooms at Shree Garma 🇳🇵❤️
We're so grateful for their commitment to helping create brighter futures for children in Nepal. We hope this experience will be as inspiring and life-changing for the cadets and leaders as the work they’ve helped make possible 🙏

Today is the day! We are incredibly proud of our Cheshire Fire Cadets as they head to Nepal for the adventure of a lifetime.

After two years of fundraising and supporting the construction of a village school through our partnership with Classrooms In The Clouds, the 19-strong team, made up of 12 cadets and seven leaders, is ready to experience Nepal's culture, landscape and communities firsthand.

We wish the team all the very best on their incredible adventure.

🌍 Miles apart across the Solukhumbu, but connected by a shared passion for learning! ❤️

We love to see our team of sponsored teachers coming together online to connect, encourage one another and share their experiences 💻

Alongside regular in person visits, our Education Support Leaders facilitate online meetings and an online support forum where teachers can exchange ideas, share examples of child-centred learning, ask questions and learn from each other 🤝

By creating opportunities to connect, collaborate and grow together, we’re helping our teachers feel supported, strengthen their practice and make a real difference in the classroom. Because when teachers support teachers, everyone benefits! 🎓

A lovely video put together by our ESL, Sharmila, showcasing the recent Early Years classroom transformation at Shree Sagarmatha School in Waku! 💛

From redecorating and organising learning spaces to refurbishing and replacing furniture, providing learning resources and creating child-friendly learning corners, every effort has helped to create a more welcoming and engaging environment for our youngest learners 🧸🎨

An update from Nepal

The devastating floods and landslides in Nepal continue to cause immense suffering, with many families still waiting for news of loved ones.

Samden Sherpa, CITC NGO Director, has shared a further update on the situation on the ground and the continuing search for those who remain missing.

You can read the full update from CITC Chair Mike Hagen, including Samden's account, here:

Our thoughts remain with everyone affected by this terrible disaster, including those who have lost loved ones and those still waiting for news.🙏

Flash Floods Nepal-Tibet

I know many CITC supporters and others will have looked on in horror as the dramatic scenes on the Nepal-Tibet border are transmitted around the world. A desperate search for survivors is underway following a massive flash flood with homes destroyed, roads swamped and bridges swept away by surging mud and water.

Initially it was believed the disaster was triggered by an earthquake but it now appears it was as a result of a massive glacial collapse and the risk remains high from further flooding.

The areas affected include the Langtang Valley/region and further north to the Tibetan border. Dawa knows this area well and it was somewhere Sarah and I trekked back in 2009. It is to the west of the schools supported by CITC and these schools and teachers have not been directly affected.

The numbers of dead and missing, however, continue to rise and it will take time before the final death toll is known. It will be a shocking figure. Many people in Nepal, including members of the CITC NGO team, have friends and family reported as missing so this is a terrible time for them as they search for news of their loved ones. Our thoughts and prayers are with them all.

Disasters, sadly, occur in many parts of the world but the extent of the impact on life and property appears directly proportional to the relative poverty of the area. This tragedy is a reminder of the challenges facing a low income country and reminds us why your support is so important in securing a better future for the people in Nepal.

All of us at CITC wish to send our deepest sympathies to all those affected by this disaster. Our commitment to this beautiful country and its amazing people remains firm.
