At the school the staff have been cultivating their allocated plots of land often bringing in outside labour to assist. Yesterday the girls helped Director Studies Vicky plant ground nuts, one girl would jembe's a hole and the following girl drops in a nut.
Following a week of exhaustive exams the girls were treated to film night. Freshly flown in from the UK was the film 'Mr Bean goes on holiday'. A perfect show, lots of laughter and shrieks.
