Our second school visit

After the relaxed yet impressive visit to Guzang is it time to address one of my projects on the 'to-do' list. This time we concentrate on the second groep of orphan and in care children.

But first off, we had an important issue to address. Yesterday, while visiting the Health Centre, someone in the group asked, " where is the fridge"? and after asking round we were told there wasn't one.

If the staff needed vaccins, someone would hop on the scooter and go to the hospital and get them. So after dinner and a discussion ont eh matter we decided to purchase a fridge and present it to the Health Centre at the opening on Saturday. Hence, the need to first visit the shops and choose a suitable fridge. After arranging transport to have the fridge delivered was this task completed, so we then continued with our daily planning.


After a lovely lunch 5 of us continued on to the school. Uopn arrival the carers and pupils were al waiting to welcome us. It continues to enthrall me how cheerful and excited the children are each time we visit. The recognition on their faces as we get closer, the children who know me by name. It is quite touching.

As the rains approached we quickly started with the task of taking photos. Individual as well as group photos. Before you could say " Jack Robinson' the task was completed.

After a chat with the principal we all shared a nice cup of coffee.
