Winter Wardrobe

The days and nights have become very chilly here in Namibia as Winter has well and truly come around again. Thanks to generous individuals and companies we have received lots of donated clothes and blankets to help keep the San Bushman families here and in Epukiro where our Clinic is, warm throughout the next few months. Using donations from Child Sponsors we have also been able to buy winter coats for the children. 

Clever Cubs receive some Cricket coaching

The San Bushman children at our Clever Cubs school have been lucky enough to receive coaching by Cricket Namibia who have partnered with UNICEF to introduce the concept of a healthy living lifestyle and choices through sport and development.

New Term for the Clever Cubs & The Bushman Olympics!

Read all about the Bushman Olympic and the latest updates on our Clever Cubs who have all just returned from their Easter Holidays:

Bushman Olympics

On Saturday 16th April, just before the children went away for their Easter Holidays, we held our annual Bushman Olympics here at N/a'an ku se. All the children got really into the spirit of the games and there were definitely signs of some budding athletes amongst our Clever Cubs....perhaps even some future Olympians! Teams were made up of volunteers, children and parents - we had Team Namibia, England, Scotland, America and Germany all represented in our games which included an egg and spoon race and football dribble.
