The Upstart group joined the event and were quite impressed by the songs and the music video. Zukani Budaza, the HipHop trainer, told them more about the Peace Project and what it all entitled. The Upstart learners then decided that they would like to partake in the coming Peace Project as a 5th group. The training for the new Peace Project will resume the first week of term.

Thank you for your support! Without you, the project would not have been so successful!
