Hooorray

Its been a very long and eventful week! Though today is the first friday of this week, to me it feels as if it's the second! That just goes to show how busy we were.

We kicked our week off with a very interesting "Train-the-trainer" course. If I may, I would like to commend Jo Enslin on the lovely presentation he gave, the course is important yet he added a "magic touch" to it and may it so enjoyable. We all had to prepare presentations on a topic of our choice. I chose voting, as to why I did that, I have absolutely no idea. Politics is not my "thing" but I learnt a thing or two about politics so it has proven worthwhile.

Thereafter we introduced to one of the most passionate people I have met, Francois Storm, who presented the incident investigation course. WOW! Thats all I have to say. It was really entertaining and informative. What a great man!

After all the fun-and-games, we had an assignment to complete and a test to write, all within reason I suppose, I mean we had to gain something solid out of this week. And we did!

I'm enjoying the programme so much, now more than ever, I'm really glad to be here. As we discussed earlier in the week, amongst ourselves, IRCA is doing a phenomenal thing. We were introduced to two gentlemen form Umsobomvu (MITI... I think), earlier on in the week as well and we let them in on our progress, feeling and thoughts on the programme. It was a refreshing exercise for us all as it reminded us of how lucky we are to be here.

Now that that's dead and buried, it's time to celebrate our steady progress.
So lets go wild and have a party ...
