LOVE.check is een voorlichtingsspel dat door de WEB.foundation is ontwikkeld voor kinderen in landen waar het risico van hiv en aids groot is. Het spel is tot nu toe in zuidelijk Afrika, Nederland en Thailand ontwikkeld, samen met deskundigen uit het land zelf. Het LOVE.check spel is een memoryspel waarin situaties uitgebeeld worden die aanleiding geven tot praten over onderwerpen als verliefdheid, vriendschap, seksualiteit en hiv/aids. Het is van levensbelang dat kinderen weten dat ze zichzelf kunnen en moeten beschermen tegen aids. Het spel wordt in en buiten het onderwijs verspreid.

Kempshott Junior School

Our largest donor of books and computer equipment, Kempshott Junior School (Nr Basingstoke - UK) continues to play a major role in helping TACCO with the Library and Computer projects. Our relationship with Kempshott Junior school begun in early 2003 when two teachers, Ms. Becca Brant and Mrs. Nina Reeves volunteered to travel to Ghana (August 2003) to help with the setting up of the children's library in Jachie village.

Prior to the trip, there was a very active exercise of donations of books, puzzles and educational toys, organised by Mrs. Gail Cheers - Asst. Head Teacher- who introduced TACCO to the school, in the first place.

David Boateng (UK Director - TACCO), visited the school on several occasions to give talks to the children about TACCO projects and answer questions about the culture and in particular, the lives of children in Ghana.

The pupils at Kempshott Junior have since taken a keen interest in TACCO and have regularly organised fundraising events to raise money towards projects like the computer centre and the building of a new Crèche in Jachie. TACCO has been issuing certificates to the pupils as a sign of appreciation for their great contribution.

Some children in Jachie who have been using the library on a regular basis started corresponding with the pupils at Kempshott as pen pals. This event has so far been very successful and it is hoped that the friendships being formed now would continue well into the future.
