Laura’s Legacy

Nóta ó Dot sa Siopa: 

“A chairde, 

Míle Buíochas le gach duine as ucht an bosca athchursála do Laura’s legacy a úsáid. 

Téann an t-airgead a bhailímid ón athchursáil buidéil i dtreo pá cúntóir riachtanais speisialta a íoc i slumanna Kibagne sa Chéinia.

Sular thógamar an scoil seo sa slum, ní raibh aon oideachas ann do dhaltaí le riachtanais speisialta ar chor ar bith. Ceapaim go dtuigimid ar fad cad is féidir a bhaint amach le hionchuimsiú agus oideachas. Tá aon dhalta dhéag ag freastal ar an scoil speisialta seo agus rachaidh cuid acu ar aghaidh chuig oideachas príomhsrutha ansin. Leanfaimid ar aghaidh ag cur fáilte roimh níos mó daltaí freastal ar na ranganna speisialta seo. 

Mar sin, go raibh míle maith agaibh arís faoi usáid a bhaint as an mbosca athchursála. Bíonn sibh ag tacú agus ag cabhrú leis na páistí seo sna slumanna i Kibagne agus Kidogo. Is ar scáth a cheile a mhaireann daoine. Go raibh maith agaibh!” 

Guímid ar fad gach rath ar Dot agus a clann a bheidh ag taisteal chuig an gCéinia go luath le cabhrú sa scoil a bhunaigh siad i gcuimhne do Laura. 

A message from Dot: “Many Thanks to everyone for donating their plastic bottles and cans to the Laura’s Legacy recycling box in school. All of the money collected goes towards paying a Special Needs Assistant in the slums of Kibagne in Kenya. 

Before we built this school there was no education services available for students with learning needs and I think we all understand was can be achieved with inclusiveness and education. 11 students attend the school and some of them will continue on the mainstream education. We will continue welcoming more students into these special classes. 

Thank you all again for using the bottle recycling box. All of the money goes to help and support these children in the slums of Kibagne and Kidogo in Kenya. Is a scáth a cheile a mhaireann na daoine.”

We would all like to wish Dot and her family every success as they travel soon to Kenya to the school founded in memory of Laura.
