With paint and wall decorations we have brightened up our classrooms. The building however is still a work in process but is moving forward to completion. That we now run fully on solar power is very exciting: we are showing the future of sustainability.
Our new electronic keyboard is a big hit among the kids. It is amazing how many members have a talent for music.
In sport we contributed the largest group out of all the Eastern Cape Province fencing clubs selected for the South African National Championships to be held in Soweto.
We have entered Onke for the next World Cup gymnastic competition in Europe in April 2019. With this initiative we have added South Africa to Egypt and Algeria as African countries competing at the World Cup competitions, which is a qualifier for the Olympics.
Sadly, the number of girls in our full programme had over the years dropped to zero. Lunga has taken up the tough challenge to recruit girls. However, it is not easy to convince girls to join a boys-only club but there is hope as we see girls jumping on the trampoline and some are joining our math classes.
