Zimbabwean school visit

Our OAT group visited St Mary's Catholic School in rural Zimbabwe. We visited 5th and 2nd grade classes. The students spoke English well and were excited to see us. Many of them asked me "What's your staple food?" Theirs is mealie meal / polenta. I thought pizza? But I said bread.

 The 5th graders
 The second graders loved posing for pictures and seeing their silly faces!


 The library, sadly filled with dusty old books and magazines. OAT's Grand Circle Foundation is going to begin helping the school.
