Journey to Ntshidi - part 3


We drove into the school yard, greeted by 200 students students cheering, clapping and warmly greeting us all.


We met with the school council, administration and village elders for a formal welcome and then proceeded to the hall to meet with the student body. On the short journey from building to building the sky above us became heavy and dark. John Henry glanced anxiously around, silently asking the question - how are we going to get home if the roads become flooded? The concern was shared by all of us, but we had more important things to focus on such as finding shelter in the hall, ride out the approaching storm and spend time revisiting project outcomes and celebrating successes with this amazing group of teachers and students.
