Our school club at Penwortham Girls’ High School<\/a> held an ”End of Year’ Ceremony to celebrate the work they have done over the past year and to decide on next year’s President and two Vice Presidents.<\/p>\n

Some of our members accepted the invitation from the girls to come and help them celebrate and commemorate their achievements.\u00a0 The girls took turns to speak to the group speaking of how much they are enjoying being part of the group and telling us of their plans for next year. They have sponsored two girls in Swaziland through a year of education with the charity PIES.\u00a0 This is no mean feat as each sponsorship is \u00a3320 but, without their help, the girls in Swazi would not be able to go to school.\u00a0 Our ‘Misses’ are passionate about continuing this accomplishment.<\/p>\n

Five girls were welcomed as new members and received\u00a0 their badges and certificates after which, Sammayah was chosen to be next year’s President.\u00a0 Sammayah has been a member of the Soroptimisses since the school club was started and we know she will work very hard to make her mark on the club.<\/p>\n

One member, Aaliyah read a poem that she had written:\u00a0 Needless to say, we were all proud and impressed with our girls and are looking forward to seeing them again in September.<\/p>\n
