Waking up at 6:00 was the least of our worries. We prepared breakfast for the "Phedisang Crew" and after that we made our way to Sekolo Primary, where we were greeted like celebrities.
First on the agenda was attending the assembly. The prayers the children sang touched our hearts and gave us shivers.
After assembly, it was time for class. We split up and off we went to experience a day in the life of a Sekolo Primary student. Comparing this to our own school, we felt a bit guilty but more than anything appreciation. We had an amazing time playing with the children at break and we were extremely sad, as well as excited to finally move onto our different Phedisang centres
Today we met our leaders. We spent a little time at the centres getting to know them, singing, dancing and sharing a delightful lunch with them.
After a long and busy day, we finally arrived back at the mission where we ended the day off with a braai and reflection session. Overall this was a critical day in our stay as this was our introduction to the next 5 days of this incredible journey.
