Day 1 - arrival and straight to school

We landed at 0500 and we were met by Mr Fullah from Nelson Mandela High School. We drove to the port to catch the ferry and saw a beautiful sunrise.

Our first stop was Nelson Mandela High School. Our welcome was overwhelming! Old friends came to say Hi and we met the new Principal Mr Sandi. The school have arranged a Sports Day on Saturday and it looks like Miss Smith and I will be very special guests. The banner made by Mrs Jones was very gratefully received.

We then went to Hope Prep School and met met the 'little ones' - they sang a special song of welcome for us. Again, it was lovely to reacquaint ourselves with friendships made over the last 3 years.

We have been made to feel most welcome!

Mr Power and Miss Smith
