Primary School Children - October update

Anna: Anna is so patient with all the little toddlers at Clever Cubs and is a wonderful role model to them all. She lights up the classroom every day with her ever sparkling smile. Anna will be turning 18 this month, which is a huge milestone. As a celebration she took her very first trip to the ocean! She took a trip with some friends to Sossusvlei and climbed the famous Dune 45. You can see from her huge smile here just how much she enjoyed the holiday!

News from the Clever Cubs - July 2011

Anna - 18 year old Anna is working at our school looking after the toddlers and is Nanny to Nico, Dana's 17 month old baby. She's a complete natural with all the babies and they love her dearly. Thanks to her sponsors, in addition to her new winter wardrobe we were also able to buy her lots of pretty clothes including a blouse and a pair of trousers - thank you!

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.
