The greeting was one part of the trip that was very highly anticipated by everyone, and I am very happy to say that it was everything and more that we imagined! As soon as we arrived there was a group of Matseliso students, some familiar and some new, ready waiting to greet us. After many hugs and overwhelming tears we were lead to the library where there were even more arriving celebrations which consisted of outstanding performances from the Matseliso choir, poem performances and a group of inspirational speeches given from various different member of staff and students. As we sat watching what was before us, it was then when I truly believed that I was here... We were finally, after years of hard work and fundraising, sat there in Matseliso high school watching our greeting ceremony, and I'm sure I can speak on behalf of all the Culcheth group that this was everything that we imagined to kick off our Culcheth-2-Soweto trip and it will be something that I will never forget!
