News from South Africa




Below is a email we received from Alan, a teacher as well as a mentor for the volunteers at Kosi Bay School in South Africa. It is great to hear such fantastic feedback about our volunteers.

“Laura and Thomas were absolutely outstanding! They are a credit to their families, to their countries and to LATTITUDE. They both took their work so seriously, but were always cheerful and friendly to be with. They also were not pushed around, they were firm in their dealings with learners AND staff. Laura brought a mature, diligent demeanour with her each day and she was able to do amazing things with the kids. Thomas is a computer boffin and brought his superior knowledge and ability into practice daily in keeping our ailing, aging computers functioning.
Both did far more at our school than was ever asked and we thank them and LATTITUDE for their generosity. May ALL future placements be as good!!!! “
