CHALK WALK IN HONOUR OF ARUSHA TEACHERS


A Chalk Walk activity was carried out by Lions Club of Arusha New Century on the 30th July 2011. This walk was in honour of teachers for the hard work exhibited in building a foremost educational society. “The contribution to progress by teachers was thus suitably noted and appreciated by all” noted Lion Manish.
This is the only sponsored walk that takes place in Tanzania annually and duly sponsored by the Club. The Walk commenced from Arusha Secondary School and covered a distance of 5km.
The Walk had a record of 560 students, 25 teachers, 11 Club members and 9 Rotarians. The Regional Education Officer, the Acting District Commissioner of Arumeru, Arusha Member of Parliament, Presidents of both the Lions New Century Arusha and Rotary Club Arusha Golden Sunshine and Head Masters from various schools participated enthusiastically.


Refreshments were served after the walk and 16 Best students from different school were awarded my Cabinet Secretary his personal pins for their outstanding academic performances. The oldest person to walk was Rotarian Harry. He was awarded by Cabinet Secretary Lion Manish with a Lions participation medal.
