Braais and Camping.

Last Friday night was an exciting night for the Academy students. It started out with our galley preparing a wonderful braai for the entire crew. A braai is a South African barbeque. The chicken and potatoes were delicious (and I’m told the beef and sausage were excellent as well) and a braai is something to which we all look forward. And it was cooked by my handsome husband and our friend Tim!



After the braai was over, the Academy students headed down to the football pitch and set up tents for our very first Academy campout. It was organized by our PE teacher, Ben Calvert, and the high school students who took the outdoor class for our student life program were able to help out. After worship around the campfire, we made s’mores (yay!!) and then the students played games on the field with Mr. Calvert and Miss Nikki. Then it was lights out! Unfortunately, all the tents were taken by families so the teachers had to sleep in their normal beds for the night :) Too bad!
