Proudly SOUTH AFRICAN!
The South African people rose to the occasion and made the Fifa World Cup a success of note!
FIFA president Sepp Blatter has given South Africa fulsome praise for successfully hosting the World Cup, which he described as one of the greatest events they had staged. Blatter gave the country a massive nine out of 10 pass mark. “After the Confederations Cup, I gave South Africa a 7,5 out of 10. After a successful final draw and this tournament I’m giving you nine out of 10, which in a university would earn the highest honours,” he said. “(It is ) a big compliment to South Africa, the people of South Africa, the government of South Africa for delivering on all the 17 guarantees of the World Cup.
The negative reporting leading up to this Soccer spectacle did nothing but unite the people of the beautiful RAINBOW NATION.
This is our time – KENAKO!
I am so proud to be a South African.
Graffiti School of Tourism
The establishment of the Graffiti School of Tourism has received another major boost.
Quinton and Abby Conroy will meet with Chief Mukuni in Livingstone, Zambia on Thursday 27th May to bring Chief Mukuni up to date with the progress of our application to the Zambian government for the allocation of a suitable portion of land to establish the Graffiti School of Tourism and the primary long term funding partner of the project, the Abbi-Q Lodge.
FIFA World Cup preparations
Africa’s Child Safaris will be wearing the colours of Italy and South Africa for the duration of the World Cup. We are hosting and providing the transport services for a contingent of 17 Italian television journalists who will be shadowing the Italian national team from their base at Protea Waterfront in Centurion, Pretoria.

Livingstone Basic School
New classrooms for Livingstone Basic School.
On Friday 14 May 2010, Vladimiro Farina from Graffiti Open World Onlus in Rome and Quinton Conroy from Africa’s Child Safaris visited the Livingstone Basic School in Livingstone, Zambia. A meeting was held with the Head Mistress and teachers to make arrangements for the building of a three classroom building that will go a long way towards creating a better learning environment for the children.
The Head Mistress of the school Ms Grace Munanyanga has been very successful in raising sufficient funds to purchase 1500 cement bricks and building sand that will be sufficient to raise the new building to window level.
Graffiti Open World Onlus will provide the necessary funding to hire a local contractor and to buy the necessary building materials to complete the classrooms as quickly as possible.

The Amazing Victoria Falls at full flood
Following the recent World in One Country tour from Cape Town to Pretoria we flew to Livingstone for a brief visit.
We were blessed to witness the amazing Victoria Falls at full flood during the weekend of 14 May 2010. This is one of the “must do” scenes that you should experience at least once in your life.
Join us for this experience of a lifetime!

Okay, all the best, Quinton. I still have great memories from our trip together and I would love to take another trip in Africa – with the condition that you are doing the driving and managing. You are a star of Africa.

Overnight Wildlife Safari – 31 March – 01 April
An excited group of students currently participating in the Semester At Sea on the ocean liner Explorer enjoyed a fantastic Overnight Wildlife Safari with Africa’s Child Safaris during their brief visit to Cape Town over the Easter Weekend.
Jenny Feuer took the initiative and made all the arrangements for her friends to join her on this fantastic safari following the very positive reports she received from her friend Max Slutsky who participated in a similar safari when he visited Cape Town a year ago as part of Semester At Sea.
It was a truly amazing and thoroughly enjoyable journey through the beautiful Cape Winelands to the Inverdoorn Reserve situated in the arid region known as the Great Karoo. The students asked many questions regarding the apartheid era and learnt at first hand from Quinton, a “product” of that that time, what the actual conditions were during that period, but more importantly, we discussed at length the wonderful future that lies ahead for the Rainbow Nation of South Africa.
The wildlife viewing at Inverdoorn was fantastic and the undisputed highlight of the safari was when the rangers brought the two Cheetah cubs to the breakfast area after the early morning game drive.

From the arid Great Karoo we travelled to Fairview Wine Estate to savour some of the great wine and cheese varieties that they produce at the estate. A thoroughly enjoyable experience that was followed up by another highlight – a visit to the exact spot where the father of our nation, Mr Nelson Mandela took his first steps in freedom.UNWTO International Summit on Tourism, Sport and Mega-Events
South Africa will be hosting the first ever UNWTO summit on tourism , Sport and Mega-events at the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg from 24-26 February 2010.This event will bring together the Worlds leading experts, and create a platform for best practice and Knowledge sharing towards mega-events excellence.

Happy clients
Beste Quinton,
Wat hebben wij een mooie reis achter de rug! Zoal ik je al vertelde was dit onze eerste ervaring met een georganiseerde busreis en wij kunnen alleen maar zeggen, dat wij genoten hebben. Het was een leuk, niet te groot gezelschap (17 personen), die het ondanks leeftijdverschillen heel goed met elkaar konden vinden.
Je hebt ons prima begeleid en heel veel wetenswaardige dingen verteld over land, cultuur, geschiedenis en natuur van Zuid-Afrika. Wat ons betreft zouden wij zo weer zo’n reis onder jouw leiding willen maken!
Heel hartelijk bedankt daarvoor en misschien tot ziens!
Hartelijke groeten,
Gerrit en Mijnie den Heijer
Rijnsburg, Nederland
