NAINOKANOKA SCHOOL (Nainokanoka). In 2001 Thomson Safaris took a number of Shady Hill families to the Maasai village of Nainokanoka, near Ngorongoro Crater, to visit a traditional Maasai enclave as well as a medical clinic and an elementary school. Tom Vorenberg, a Shady Hill teacher, gave impromptu lessons in a Nainokanoka classroom. After representatives of Friends of Tanzanian Schools met officials of Nainokanoka and discussed the Maasai school’s need to rebuild crumbling classroom buildings, FOTZS voted to contribute funds to do an interim rehabilitation of the classroom. The construction project took place in 2002.
