The Madagascar 2012 Expedition will follow 14 years of world travel and community projects organised by The Coopers' Company and Coborn School. In 2012 a group of 34 year 12 and 13 students will spend one month in Madagascar, with the aim of completing the building of a secondary school block in the Merina village of Andranosoa. Pupils will also spend time experiencing the vulnerable wildlife, people and landscapes of what is a unique country by travelling to the west coast via a 3 day canoe journey along the Tsiribihina river, visiting the Tsingy de Bemaraha, Kirindy Forest and the Avenue de Baobab. As a team, we are hoping to raise £20,000 to cover costs for the charity project. The aim of this blog is to provide information about Madagascar, the team and the fund-raising project. Please visit the pages shown on the right to learn more about the expedition.

Madagascar Independence Day Event (Not Fundraising)

The Anglo-Malagasy society are putting on an evening of Malagasy food and music to celebrate Independance day. If anyone is interested in attending please email me at pch@cooperscoborn.co.uk. Tickets for students (17-18) are £15 and for those of you still 15 or 16, only £5. They are looking for people to volunteer to help out too. This is not a fundraising event but will give us good ideas to host our own this time next year! Click on the poster to see a larger version.
