Crickhowell High Head & teacher meet their ZIM Head & teacher yesterday on Capetown soil..

Well today it is pure pleasure with a magnificent flawless day of radiant blue cloudless skies as two schools sound each other out in their Capetown partner's city.  With several days to share the sights and sounds of the Mother City, and also their twin school, they are bound to leave with a deeper insight all round.  So far so good!
