Time to hit the road again – since August 2014. The ideal would have been to have completed the training of the remaining 8 schools in the Nciba district immediately after the initial phase. Due to restrictions on no access to schools in the final term this was not possible.
All my second year in-service science students from NMMU were invited to attend but only Esme and Johan decided to take up the offer. They were able to use this opportunity to complete their Work in Learning (Teaching Prac) assignments prior to the university term commencing early in February for NMMU.
We departed mid-afternoon on Sunday to arrive on the farm outside Cathcart before nightfall. This environment provides a wonderful retreat with peace and tranquility and no TV or even cell phone coverage.
The evening was spent sharing learning experiences and going through some of the Lego training with Johan and Esme.
