The Kenya Team unite

Just got back from Mwaluganje. The group is in very good spirits and appear to have gelled together amazingly well.

They have been focusing on the construction of the new kitchen at Ngozini Primary School that we started last week and love Mwaluganje. One of your lads decided to try and eat elephant poop to see what it tastes like. “Wouldn’t try it again” was his comments.

It’s extremely hot in Mwaluganje as it is all over the country at the moment.

Trying to cool down in the heat

The school has not had water for a couple of months now as the water authorities dumped a huge bill on the school, for which they were not responsible. We suspect it was because there have been so many leaks from the mains in that area and somehow the water authorities had to account for it and slapped it on the school.

Anyway, the school has been fighting the water authority and has finally got the bill reduced. They still only have a quarter of what’s needed so we dug into some of The Leap fund to help them out. It was always one of those exceptional schools that actually had water in the first place yet now the kids are walking over a km for water and all of the seedlings for the crop have died. The team is now helping the school back up on its feet.
