We are absolutely thrilled to have this one-of-a-kind opportunity and are deeply grateful to UAB and especially to GREIP for funding Miss Angela's first-ever trip outside Africa. This journey promises to be a remarkable personal and professional experience. 

The students of Sant Jordi School are eagerly preparing to welcome her with great excitement. They've planned many surprises to show her their water-saving efforts and life-saving initiatives, while also sharing much about their traditions and culture.

We will share more photos and videos about her stay as as soon as we have them ready! 

From 22nd until the 28th September, Miss Angela had the chance to visit Spain and Sant Jordi School had the honor of hosting the Nigerian teacher Miss Angela for three days filled with special activities. She gave a presentation on Nigeria's education system and shared her Oakbridge Foundation. She also led African dance workshops, while the school introduced her to traditional Catalan games. The 5th graders shared a presentation on Catalan traditions like giants, la castanyera or even el "tió."

A sincere and special THANK YOU to the GREIP Research Group, and specially Melinda Dooly for bringing Miss Angela’s travel adventure to life and turning her dream into an unforgettable journey.

We were honored to have members of the City Hall of Mollet del Vallès show great interest in the proposals put forward by our young activists during the three-month project focused on improving the local water situation. Their dedication to addressing water challenges was evident when they visited our school last year to be interviewed and share insights on the city's ongoing efforts.

In this inspiring exchange, the city representatives not only highlighted the initiatives Mollet is undertaking to enhance water sustainability but also listened to our students' innovative ideas on how to further improve the situation. It was a valuable experience for everyone involved, fostering meaningful dialogue and motivation.

We are truly grateful for their continued support and willingness to visit our school, recognizing the hard work and passion of our young activists. A heartfelt THANK YOU to the City Hall for their collaboration and encouragement!

Below you can read the letters of appreciation of Miss Angela: 

We would like to share this experience with our felllow colleages in Catalonia. That is why we are presenting the project to the APAC Awards 2024. In the event that this project wins an award, the prize will be fully donated to the Oakbridge Foundation, to help them continue working on their amazing mission helping young kids in Africa fulfill their dreams.

This project is going to provide some data for two PHDs research thesis, so probably there will be quite a few more conferences, publications and all type of dissemination about this inter-continent adventure. If you are interested, stay tunned or please contact us by email.
