14th Feb, Leroo La Tau
As part of the ongoing and close association between Leroo La Tau and the local Khumaga community, the twelve top performing pupils, and two teachers, from Khumaga Primary School, were rewarded for their hard work with a morning game drive at Leroo La Tau.
Under the experienced tutorage of Fred and Lance, the students set out to experience at close quarters the wildlife and ecology of this unique area and were not disappointed with sightings of lion, a first for some, elephants, giraffe, hippo, impala, kudu and many other species of mammals and birds.

Following the drive they were taken to the lodge where they enjoyed sandwiches, cake and soft drinks.
A great deal of fun was had all round, the day ending with a choir competition between the Khumaga children and the Leroo La Tau staff culminating with all combining to form a single magnificent choir.
After a photo session a tired but elated group of pupils were returned to school. Such outings are vital for children, not only to learn about the wildlife that exists in their backyard but also for them to gain an understanding of how important the protection of the environment is for future generations.
