Hi, our third term has just started and although we had a few really nice and almost springlike days the weather has turned cold, very cold and rainy. Of course in a place where it is sunny and dry most of the year the rain is welcomed.

The children are all happy to be back at school, to see their friends again and to pick up the threads of learning. With the support of the Freunde der Erziehungskunst in Germany the school was able to build one extra classroom for the high school. It will be the science classroom as this room is currently on the stage of the hall. the hall is stacked with furniture and other things from when the high school moved from the rented premises down to where the primary school is located. Another three classrooms are needed as the rooms being used now are small and totally inadequate.

I really would like to urge anyone to donate towards the sponsorship which is posted here. Life of ordinary south africans  is financially becoming more and more difficult - prizes for all goods and services (electricity prizes went up with 31%) are rising but the income does not reflect that. Most parents of our school are working when and where they can. Sometimes there is no contract but even if there is there is no guarantee that your income reflect the inflation in the country. Without the support of sponsors we simply cannot provide education for our children.
