We tried to visit the Child Probation Officer today as she was due back from holidays today, but we were informed that she will not be back until Thursday. So we went to the police, ‘special department’ to see them as they deal with the same area. They told us that we need to see the Probation Officer, before they drilled us for about one hour. I think they were just trying to test us out to see if we were genuine, but it was not really a fun experience.
After this we decided to get the remaining things we needed to get started. The only things we now need are fresh food items. Today we bought a range of things, including 100kg’s of beans, rice and maze flour each. On our travels we met two ladies that were interested in be matrons. So we sent them to VCCS to meet Erica and Quinton for an interview. It turn out that one had previously worked with another church looking after children in and orphanage for ten years. Also she is an interpreter at her church so she speaks very good English. I am glad we held of and waited for the right persons to come along as her experience will be invaluable for training future matrons.
I haven’t posted photos for a while, so here is one of you know who:
