Growing Project

Recently we went to see the 2 fields where maize and beans are growing.  Due to the regular rain showers and sunshine the maize and beans have been growing well.  It is hoped there will be a good crop. SVDP members at St. Peter's are grateful to the friends in Scotland who have made this project possible; it gives them hope that they can continue to help the needy in the community.

Nature is a fine balance; we pray the much needed rains for the crops do not become so heavy that the beans and maize rot.

Schools stop for Easter

On Friday the schools closed for Easter.  Just like Scotland the learners have 2 weeks holiday.  On the last day of term the learners receive their school report if they have paid 100 kwacha. There is also a whole school assembly outside.  Unfortunately the heavy rains came down and we were all soaked.
