last wednesday the first of the team from the university of stuttgart arrived at the village of hope, this team, of 20 or so, are artichtech students and have come to build us an accommodation block on part of the 6 hectares of land that we own here in grabouw.
the team leaders/project managers, leslie and ulrika, are now busy making preparations for the rest of the team to join them at the end of this month and yesterday we broke the ground where the building will stand. our friend graeme cherry bought is digger up to the village of hope and cleared the site for us, in readiness for us to mark out the foundations and commence digging the footings later this week.the photo shows (which we will upload later due to our internet lines being down AGAIN!) the digger, always an exciting addition to any photo, and the team, well leslie, ulrika, arron and rob (who does look a little like david livingstone don't you think!).
please follow the progress of the building on this blog and also look at the students blog here, which will also show you how the fundraising is going, along with some further info about them and the way they are looking to bless us.
