Encouraged around every turn!

 In June and July we finished the last things outstanding for the ABC/ACTT students to graduate. This they did and we had a lovely evening @ First Light Coffee Shop, celebrating their achievements.

Also in July I returned to Canzibe, Transkei to complete the second week of the “Out of Town training”. (Please look here if you would like to see how such training works.) It was nice to now already know the students a little better. The reports of how they are implementing the training warms my heart.

In the past 4 months I also trained 7 students with the Sophakama Tutor Training. One lady started her practical at a school, but because of the holidays that started, could not complete it, so she continued with a few kids in her neighborhood. Now that the practical is completed, the neighbors have asked her to continue with their children, as they can see the value the lessons add to their children's academic development. I always rejoice when I hear such reports. 

The ABC Spring Adventure had only one participant. Even though I would have liked to have more, it was really good to invest in the one. Caron Hammond was a star student in every way. She read through all the material after every class and implemented every sphere we touched on. Well done!!!

I am currently busy with training at a local Safe House for Children. The founder, Nelly, is such an inspiring person and you can see her positive influence on her children. I am talking to them about how they can all play a part in the development of the little one between the ages of three to six years in their family. I have been enriched myself from this time with them.

Well, that is my news at this time.
