W.B.Tshume had only just merged with another primary school and moved to larger premises that, whilst purpose built for school, were perhaps the most run down and lacking in resources we had visited. That said the staff were an incredible team of positive and pro-active individuals with hearts of gold making our time at the school exceptionally welcoming.
The outside area was completely inaccessible due to litter, broken glass and overgrown shrubs and weeds and it took more than four solid days of constant work from the hired digger to create a cleared surface and border that could then be garnished with top soil and turfed.
Whilst this was going on the laborious task of de-stoning an area of land set aside for a vegetable garden continued. This was for the purpose of helping to provide nutritional food for the pupils of the school many of whom would fall asleep during class due to malnutrition.
