After 2 years of fundraising Cowbridge arrives on Goedgedacht farm with 35 students and 5 staff members. They are staying for 1 week. Once everyone had dragged their bags up the hill to their rooms they watched a climate change play that was performed by our own teenagers. In celebration of Madiba’s birthday 107 young people from Wales, Sutton in the UK and our farms joined together for a big sing along. I am sure that Madiba would have cried if he heard everyone singing happy birthday in Welsh, English, Afrikaans and Xhosa last Saturday. After 67 seconds of silence the young people broke out in singing various karoake songs till late night. That set the tone for the exciting activities ahead.

I will keep you updated on what we have on the cards for them every day….watch this space! To check out what students from Cowbridge are saying about the farm, click on the following link:
