the village of hope seeks to help children infected or affected by hiv, aids and tb in two different ways: we have a 9 bed children's unit to support those infected by hiv and aids and we also run a community-based sports and lifeskills outreach in the informal settlements and squatter camps each afternoon.

this blog has been set up to allow the key members of the team at the village of hope to share their thoughts, photos and experiences as we work in the community of grabouw in south africa

hi ho hi ho its off to school we go....

walking out with his little school bag

we can hardly believe that the little bundle of joy that arrived at the village of hope aged just five days has taken his first steps along his journey in education, yes today he starts his first day at preschool aged three years. he joins our other little girls, one who has moved up into reception class which is a very big step for her too!

for this little boy it will be a huge step, he has had little contact with his family and most of his experience has been in our children's unit at the village of hope, please pray that he has peace and makes lots of new friends, and that he also knows we will be back to pick him up at 12 o'clock.


joining his other new friends who started school today
with mommy maz!
