We were privileged to host 38 boys and 5 masters from Eton College, UK, during their rugby tour to South Africa.  In 2005 we hosted a hockey tour from Eton, so we were pleased to strengthen the relationship we have with this school.  The Tour Party raised funds for a new passenger vehicle for Sethani which is desperately needed in all aspects of the project.  They visited the Sethani Centre for a day and a half, joining in with a newly-formed cricket team, known as the Blue Eagles.  The boys camped overnight at the Inanda Dam, singing songs around the campfire, rap-dancing and kicking footballs!  The Eton boys worked very hard under the winter sun, painting, digging and levelling a soccer field.  We are extremely grateful to the parents, boys and masters from Eton College who can be very proud of their achievements and we wish them well for the rest of their tour.

July 2005

Two hockey teams from Eton College, England were hosted by Sethani overnight during their tour of South Africa, camping at the Msinzi Resort, alongside Inanda Dam.

20 boys from the community joined them to spend the night under canvas.  The following day, all worked hard to continue building work at the Sethani Centre.

Sethani received much-appreciated funds to equip the centre, which is to be used as a resource base by the community.
