Hi everyone!
I have recently heard from Mr. Mahachi, Head of Pakati Primary school. He has sent me a lot of information & pictures, covering several stories. Today I will show quite a few photos from a trip for some students out to a particular part of Harare – the R G Mugabe International Airport.
The visit also takes in the Lion & Cheetah Park in Harare, and a children’s playground called ‘Tamba Tese’ (‘Play Together’).
The children & staff from Pakati Primary school were taken to Harare by coach from a local travel company, an experience they cleary enjoyed.
The main part of the trip was clearly the visit to the Harare International Airport, named aftee the former President of Zimbabwe, Robert G Mugabe.
Below are some of the photos of the staff & students, clearly having a good time, looking at aircraft & going on board
From Mr Mahachi recently:
‘Learners arrive at school between 0600 and 0630 hrs. The bus started its journey by 0630, and arrived in Harare at R G Mugabe Airport around 0900 hrs. Learners ate their braekfast whilst travelling and ate the lunch at Lion and Cheetah Park between 1300 and 1400hrs.
Lastly visted Tamba Tese after 1400 hrs. The bus started its journey to the school around 1700 hrs and arrived back at the school some minutes after 8pm as it was dropping some learners along the way. “
These are just a few of the students who benefit from the very generous donations given to Friends of Pakati over the last 6 years – Computers & laptops, football shirts, t-shirts etc. – and just as important, cash donations & sales of merchandise.
