DAY 1: Shuttering Up

Monday morning...

Our overly excited spirits and great enthusiasm was greeted by gloomy weather.Due to these unforseen weather circumstances ,we were unable to commence work on site.However that did not stop us, due to our limited time available to complete this project we began work at FADA ( University of Johannesburg).

All the students gathering to discuss the plan for the day.
