Fred Hyde is a remarkable Queenslander and CO-ID Australia is a registered Australian charity that builds and operates schools on Bhola Island in Bangladesh. Fred is from Warwick in Queensland, and over a period of 3 decades he has overseen the building of 41 schools in Char Fassion. We funded School number 37, which we continue to support each year. It was completed in 2008 and is now fully enrolled with 300 children and 4 teachers - that is, with a teacher-child ratio that would challenge western teachers everywhere . ... but which shows that the children of Bhola are clamouring to go to school, and that we all value best what we work hardest to achieve. CO-ID's most recent school , # 41, was opened by the Australian High Commissioner on 9th of May 2009. By way of saying thank you to Australia the young people of Bhola Island, one of the poorest regions in the world, managed to raise in return - taka by taka - the equivalent of one and a half year's adult wage . Their generous donation was made on behalf of the Australian Bush Fire Appeal and went towards assisting those who suffered such devastating loss in the Victorian bush fires.
