Welcome again to our Friends of Pakati Podcast series, and I am delighted that we – our host Bradley Mell and myself – managed to speak to Debbie Chadbon. Debbie was one of the teachers who came after me through VSO, and she talks at length about her time at the school in the early 1990’s.

Debbie with some of her students in 1992
The World Map was repainted when the school was redecorated in 2017, and as I found out in 2018 & 2019 it still generates interest in the area
After a covid-enforced delay, Debbie managed to raise funds for us in 2021 with a sponsored Cycle Ride in the Bristol area where she lives

Thank you Debbie!
