Thank you for organising the Palestinian Womens International Womens Day trip--it must have taken huge amounts of time. Both our visits yesterday went very well.
Keith and I met Shatha and the other 2 students with Hayet for lunch, which was pleasant and very interesting. The contact with Shatha in particular will be very useful for Keith during his forthcoming visit to Salfeet.
The evening meeting was also very good. We had around 55 people--much the biggest attendance we've ever had, including a higher proportion of women than usual. We served a meal to most of them, and Rawya's talk was well received with many questions. She also visited a local secondary school during the afternoon, partly to see the school and partly for a question and answer session with some sixth formers. That also went really well. Rawya was ideal for us with her good command of English, and I think real friendships may result from her visit.
So from our point of view, well done and thank you.
