Day 6! Going Safari MKGP Style


Yesterday we were invited to attend an AGM of a local NGO. We were involved in their Committee elections and group discussions about potential projects and events and constitutional changes. This was a fantastic experience for us as we were able to learn about how other organisations run, and how we want to shape MKGP.

In the afternoon we visited Pilensburg National Park to see some of South Africa’s Indigenous Animals. National Parks in South Africa are fabulous conservation areas where the people work to protect animals such as “The Big Five” - Elephants, Lions, Leopards, Rhinos and Buffalos. We were lucky enough to see a Rhino, a Giraffe, Warthogs and Zebras!!

The students we visited at Ramatu High School this week said that Indigenous animals are one of the things they most love about their community.
