Bakalarr hosts Inter School Sports
We have received a message from Mr Bakary Gitteh, the headmaster of Bakalarr School. He writes :-"I am pleased to inform you that our school (Bakalarr Basic Cycle School) is again hosting the inter school sport competition which started last Sunday, 27 May and will end next Sunday. It is not our turn to host but because of our facilities that is why we are hosting it again.
This is because of the good job you have done in the school such as toilets, basket and volley ball lawn and the buildings etc. On this note I thank you very much and may God give you good health and long life and a success in your efforts in helping Gambian people. We are proud of you. NB: Seven schools including Bakalarr are there."
Bakalarr is the first school Pageant became associated with in The Gambia. We have helped them in many ways (see list of our projects there), but most relevant to the above news was the provision of new toilets and a multi-purpose court for basketball, volleyball, tennis and badminton. Pageant would not have achieved so much at this school without the dedication and enthusiasm of Mr Gitteh.
