On Thursday we visited Rehoboth again. I spent the morning in Rehoboth High School (RHS) whilst Ruth went to look at a primary school and Lebensschule (the project for mentally and physically handicapped children).
The news on our home is better and we are more hopeful that we will be able to move to Rehoboth this weekend which will be a real answer to prayer. (BTW -this could mean that our blog updates are less frequent.)
My timetable (watch this space!) is made up of 10 periods of Maths, 10 periods of Computers and 12 periods of Business Studies(!!) each week. I hoped that I would get to observe some lessons but the Head of Department (HOD) for Computers (and much more) had had problems installing software the previous day so... Talking of fixing computers I have spent quite a bit of this week at NETS (Namibia Evangelical Theological Seminary) sorting out various IT problems. Viruses are a huge problem over here so that is usually the first thing I sort.
Back to Thursday, Ruth visited Ruimte Primary School where the principal was very friendly and welcoming AND they have a small special needs class that might be suitable for Jaydon. Ruth has an appointment at 7am Monday morning to see the principal with J&C's birth certificates and to confirm that the school can take foreigners.
Ruth and the girls then visited Lebensschule for about 3 hours. Ruth came away feeling rather daunted by the challenges. There is a need to develop more consistent structure and routine but as always there are limited resources and communication problems as the local lady volunteers have almost no English. Ruth would value prayers that she might know how involved to get in this project.
