learn about our story
Salesian College Farnborough has worked with our Salesian partners in Zambia for nearly 20 years. In 2004, the College worked with Mrs Mweete, a former Headteacher and active lay parishioner, to establish the Porridge Club at Assumption Parish in Mazabuka.
Fast forward to 2006 and, following a pilgrimage to Lourdes, the name was changed to ‘Share the Light’ (that year’s HCPT motto). Salesian College trips to Zambia commenced in 2012 with the aim to develop parish links and support the local community and, in 2014, Salesian Sarria Barcelona joined the effort and have contributed tremendously ever since.
In recent times, we have rebranded to get closer to our Salesian identity; our new name, SHARE is an acronym for ‘Salesian Hearts Advocating the Relief of Poverty and Education’. We hope that, with your hope, this next chapter will be our most successful yet!
