In April 2008 members of Fusion Youth Theatre spent two weeks in Ghana's capitol, Accra, in Africa with professional african dance group TimAfrik. They worked together to devise a dance performance which toured around the area including a live performance on TV Africa! They also visited the slums and local schools and donated money and small equipment. Visit their website on www.fusionyouththeatre.co.uk for more information about the group.

SATURDAY 19th April 2008

We asked Tim-Afrik to take us to a place where the group could go swimming safely. So we all piled into taxis and ended up at the Shang-rila Hotel. It was very posh and had an amazing pool where people could pay to use it for the day even if they werent staying at the hotel itself.
The pool was huge and had a bar in it! Everyone got into swimming costumes and sun cream and dived in. It was lovely but the sun was so hot and shade was required at regular intervals for a lot of people.

The day was pretty relaxed! We headed home and the group agreed they would like to come back tomorrow before the flight home!
