Completion of planned work at Nomonde Pre-School
The three year project was to have been completed by February 2021 with significant improvement to the playground. Thwarted, through COVID-19, by the cancellation of the profitable LTPT events programme, this work may have to be delayed a few months. However, plans are proceeding.
Lathitha (Shining of the Sun)
This initiative has been successful and will continue. Including Nomonde, the estimate is that 500 children benefit from the scheme.
The emphasis will be on staples suitable for young children, (cabbage, butternut squash, carrots, baby marrow, potatoes and sweet potatoes, pumpkin, spinach, chard and squash gem. The importance of this is summarised in one cook’s words:
“Some come in starving but after six weeks of my soups with your vegetables they are well”
