    • Day 4

      2nd Community Day

      April 16, 2023 in South Africa ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C

      On the road again this morning visiting the houses that we have built in the past. To date we have built 67 houses of which Mildred donate a house from one GoGo to another GoGo in 2015. Today is about showing the volunteers what they are aiming to build and complete over the next seventeen days. It's also about showing Geoff and Ruth Mums house. Has we pull into Mildred's house there is confusion to start with. A big van with a load of people turning up is not a usual event around here. Has soon as the van door is opened and Nkosie explains who we are there is great rejoice.
      Ruth finally get to me the family but the GoGo is away tending her garden 🪴 we will have to pop back...lol
      The second visit is the House that Jades Dad built Paul In 2013.
      When we area the young boy Alasanda is also not there but Jade gets to see the House. We make our way back home popping into see the Family that Debs sponsors in particular the brother of Nontobeko, Enelle.
      Home time and time to go to the beach before dinner.

      Bhekamangwane Breakfast Club Paint Day

      April 21, 2023 in South Africa ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C

      Bhekamangwane
      When you write a blog at the end of a day you have the fortune of looking back on the whole day.
      The day starts at 5am early early. ready to take the volunteers to the Breakfast club at Bhekamangwane school. The journey down is a little quieter than normal as the volunteers catch up on some sleep.
      Thanda is the Principal at the school an amazing lady that is so inspirational and more Importantly her pastel care is amazing. A lady with strong boundaries and good values. At this school she has the breakfast club so organised papa the children line up so well and wait patiently. Once the children have finished eating the porridge 🥣 they attend their assembly under the beautiful tree. The children's singing is so beautiful all in harmony. Before we leave we to have our photo taken.
      We then have yet another house to paint for the Girl Guides. When we arrive there is a little puppy 🐶 by the house that we are to paint. Such a skinny little thing. I always carry some puppy poaches of meat on me and after that and a few biscuits his fell asleep with a full tummy.
      The team jump to it and they all take a wall and crack on within 3hrs they have bagged washed, painted and sealed the house.
      Thank you, happy team happy, happy Girl Guides and happy puppy 🐶
