Month one down

Team managed to meet and review last years goals and went through those achieved. We also had time to read out and evaluate achievable goals for 2013. All departments read out theirs mostly geared towards making our kids better and more prepared for life and spiritual life.  Much was discussed about the future of the ministry and our vision and focus.
With a lot of the kids joining skills training we were faced with the challenge of dividing the kids evenly in all the skills areas. Rashid felt he wanted to pursue hairdressing but we had put him in woodworking. The entire team felt he would thrive well in woodworking so we did some mentoring through Robin, he was uncomfortable at first but is doing well.
 We now have kids in Auto-mechanics, woodworking, and hairdressing. Theses skills did not have student last year.
We recently bought new chicks to help supplement our diet.  We now have close to 300 chicken that are all layers.
All building projects are ongoing, the Sewing building is almost done, the new comp lab is finished, only electrical fitting remains.
Philip has started his school in Daystar university  he is doing his degree in Mathematics. Irene is almost finishing with her degree in psychology and counselling. Joel Graduated with a degree in Business management.
