Day 17 Photos: Last day at Ulandi Primary School

Sunrise from Nkopola Campsite, overlooking Mozambique on the horizon


Shopping stops were frequent in Nkopola to purchase bread, vegetables, paint and material!

Bonkey, our carpenter, and his brother finishing the last of the benches

Moving the finished shelving from the carpenter's house to the school

Organising moving furniture


Ladder out, shelving in


Everyone had a job, whether that was sign writing, mural painting, sorting books, organising shelves, decorating or drawing characters from our books on the walls


The children were excited to see our progress through the windows

Many hands truly do make light work










Leveson, our painter did a sterling job

Grade 8 students were amazed at the selection of books funded by RR Donnelley


Painting the door

The teaching staff couldn't quite believe what we organised




Final photo opportunities for the pupils



Meeting the former headmaster and his wife Ethel, a teacher, in their home - a true inspiration



Proud of our achievement










The final handover ceremony

Talent Show with the songs the students learnt


Showing the students inside their library for the first time - in small groups 










Our thanks to RR Donnelley for funding the books


Our thanks to our blog followers for their pledges of donations which allowed us to improve
the Ulandi Primary School Library


Saying our final farewells
