Toowa Team
Virtual Kiltwalk 2021
April 2021
To raise funds for the school and the classroom rebuild project, a few members of “Friends of Toowa” team took part in Scotland’s Virtual Kiltwalk 2021. As this was a virtual event we decided to be the first to do the walk in 3 countries at the same time. Scotland, England and Uganda!. Kathleen sent some Kilts and “See you Jimmy” hats to Uganda for Elijah and Mike.

As many of you are probably aware, Elijah’s faithful motorbike was stolen. Various fundraising and generous donations have been made and we have raised a large sum of money to purchase a replacement bike. Thank you to all that helped. His motorbike is vital to Toowa and his work. We will keep you updated on this story.
