Today we woke up to a beautiful morning and we went to visit a Play Pump in Magogoe. We think the Play Pump is a great idea for Ntshidi so we took some photos to show them later on in the day.
We then took off to Ntshidi Middle School – 121kms from Mafikeng. Millennium Kids has been meeting with Ntshidi 5 years now and we are keen to empower them to make their school a better place.
When we arrived we met the Principal and the School Governing Body for a meeting. They told us that since our last visit they now provide food for their students and they have a new water system. However it isn’t energy efficient, costs a lot of money and is 3km from the school.
After visiting Ntshidi we went to see other primary schools in the area which were way better than Ntshidi in terms of infrastructure because they were built by the government only 10 years ago. Whereas Ntshidi was built by the community in the 1950s.
We met with the local Chiefs and committed to the school that we would continue to work with them to get water and a food garden in their school within the next 6 months.

A little deja vu. So nice to see all those familiar faces.
Hope all the hard work is paying off for everyone.
We'll keep the home fires burning here (figuratively speaking)
