The day started off with a bit of a panic as we ran slightly late. Nevertheless, we arrived on time and got straight to work on all fronts. The ladies were teaching and coaching sport while the lads got to work on the staff room.
The time in the class room has been amazing as the skills from our people and the techers combine to add value to the knowledge of the students. The desire to learn is tremendous and very encouraging.
The staff room that is being renovated, was completey sanded and received its first varnish. The walls have been sanded and are ready for a wash down before we paint them on Thursday. A new kitchen has been ordered with a new oven and hob. We receive this tomorrow morning.
A local journalist visited the school to report on the story and we got some great pictures with the kids.
At 3 o'clock we decided to visit Sister Ethel at the Missionvale centre. Sister Ethel is an Irish nun that has dedicated the last 22 years to the people of missionvale. Missionvale is poverty at a whole new level and the work she is doing is truly amazing. What a fantastic visit to her center that does such good work.
Sorry that we have not loaded more pictures but we promise to do so shortly, we have 100's of awesome pics to share with you.
The Alpha Team.
PS the weather is fantastic, was 30 c yesterday.
