Tackling the Challenges Together

Today we had a very productive time with the teachers here on this Rise Liberia trip. We spent some time hearing from them about the challenges they face in the school and their priorities.

Our first day

Our first day in Liberia saw us visiting the Rise Liberia School, spending time with our Management Team and, in the evening, speaking at the first nightly meeting - outside in the warm evening.

Rich in Relationship
