Again we have had a very hot day, by 1400 it was over 30 degrees. Some of the group were finding it hard going because of the heat.

The wood poles for the roof had not arrived by the time we left the site today, but we have had local people out all day cutting the poles, so hopefully they will be on site when we get on site tomorrow morning. We were able to start plastering of the walls in the small classroom,the whole group were taking turns mixing mortar and plastering.

Its 9.30pm and the roofing sheets have just arrived, that means tomorrow we should be able to fix some of the roof tomorrow which will be the last day we will be working School.

Thursday we will be handing the classrooms over to the School.

  2. Am sure you will all work until you drop tomorrow as I'm sure you all want to see the roof on before you hand it over to the school - GOOD LUCK! I hope it's not too hot

  7. Hi Barney,
    Everyone is so proud of what you have all achieved. The safari looked great ... and you got out of the cars !!
    Sam is home with a nice tan and busting to see you on Sunday.
    Hope you manage to get the roof panels on before the hand-over ... if not you'll have to all go back and finish off in a few weeks time.
    Have a great finish to the campaign and a trouble free trip home .
    Love Dad x
