We recieved 40 students from the University of Stellenbosch reaching out to the people of Mozambique. They came prepared with their slogan: “Vida para compartilhar” which means “Life to share”. And share they did! They helped on many projects which included:
- The painting of our upgraded bush school;
- Feeding of kids through our school kitchen;
- Visiting and sharing with orphans;
- A school athletics program;
- Sport interaction with our communities close by;
- Dancing and exchanging cultural views with everyone around us;
- Helping and planting in our school gardens;
- Gathering of maize for the local people.
They were busy …… and I mean busy!!! We really want to thank the whole team for travelling nearly 6 000 km to be with us. They were a huge blessing – keeping in mind they had to survive in tents for their time with us. (PS Did I mention that it was extremely cold during the nights – a rarety for Mozambique!)
