Bread making and baking on an open fire will be on the menu on Saturday, along with Hapa Zome – the Japanese art of printing from nature.
Sixteen-year-old Molly Van Der Heiden, a pupil at Farmor’s School, Fairford, approached Lakes by Yoo to see if they would support her fundraising efforts for a charitable World Challenge trip to Ethiopia in July.
The Lakes by yoo kindly gave Molly a two week-night stay to auction, and also asked her to collaborate with them on a video to promote their School of Wild sessions run by Ben Fogle.
Molly is travelling to Ethiopia with seven friends from the school and while there, they will be helping with a building project at the Zuria Seconday School in Bahir Dar.
If Molly generates interest and bookings in the School of Wild, they will make a donation to her fund.
The promotional video can be seen at https://vimeo.com/127086354
Another School of Wild is planned for Saturday, June 20, when Alpaca wool spinning and weaving will be on the agenda.
For bookings and enquiries about the School of Wild, email janinka@cotswoldpartyservices.co.uk or phone 07818 426060. Bookings for this Saturday’s session need to be made by Thursday at the latest.
