PRESTON School in Yeovil has strengthened links with its partner school in Ghana.

He met with students and staff and the school’s new headteacher Mr Siameh.

Mr Peace worked on eight projects with the students during the week, as well as watching the student choir perform songs and the cultural group perform traditional Ghanaian dances.
