From Elmina (GHANA) to Liverpool

“The miracle is not that we do this work, but that we are happy to do it.” Mother Teresa

The College was delighted to welcome back Catherine Nelson from the “Mother of Mary Foundation.”

Catherine was able give a wonderful update on the success of a special project that the college has been involved in.

When the college relocated to its present campus all of our surplus equipment was donated to the Ghanaian schools project.

An outstanding amount of work has been done in getting surplus equipment to help, support and develop schools in Ghana, so successful has been the college involvement that numerous other Liverpool schools have become involved.

Headteacher of the college Paul Dickinson said, “We are extremely proud, happy and committed to being involved in this special work of the Foundation and have seen the miracle of education changing lives for the young people of Ghana”.

Catherine is sister of Mr Tom Nelson who teachers Mathematics at the college. Mr Nelson has also played a key role in organising the collection and distribution of equipment.

Catherine reminded us that the main street in the town of Elmina is called Liverpool Street!
