MOVE!!!!!

On Saturday Philani moved! We had many helpers, building, moving, unpacking and making mud buildings. The new spot is much bigger and we have already been able to expand so much!

Bafana Bafana

Today at Philani we celebrated the upcoming soccer world cup! Wembley school visited and the children painted South African flags, made mari-biscuit soccer balls and had fun face-painting!

Classrooms are up!

The classrooms were finished on Friday, we now just have to put the last finishing touches onto the building. The big move is happening on Saturday, we can't wait to get settled in!!!

Land Prep!

Last week the site of land at Lindelani was cleared and prepared for the upcomming move!

New Land

This is a Map of the new piece of land that we are going to be using to build Philani Canter on. We are going to move to it next month. At the moment we are busy shaping the land and connecting water and electricity!

Beach outing

On the last day of term we went on an outing to the beach. The day started early, with a bus drip down to the coast. The children were a bit nervous of the sea at first but before long they were shrieking with laughter and playing in the waves on the shore.

Wooden house

We were given exciting news this week, the Umvoti municipality has donated this wooden house for us to use at Lindelani. It needs a bit of restoration, but once we have replaced windows and doors and given it a few layers of varnish, it is going to be ideal for new classrooms and the baby care!
