As a newbie assisting CETAF I'm constantly impressed at how smoothly CETAF gets so many things done.

The list above covers CETAF's valuable contribution to Aileu.

Another major achievement of CETAF is bringing together a diverse group of people in the Campaspe area for a very worthy purpose. Community spirit is being enriched both in Aileu and Campaspe.

Well done Dianne, Rhonda and all others who work so hard for CETAF.

Regards

Pete
