Bulelani, grd 8, loved Melusi's Everyday Zulu @mshengumel so much he made a quiz program about it. You'll learn Melusi's opinions on the polony scandal and see how coding and the love of books come together nicely. .

Eden College has a gem of an IT teacher in Clay Johnson. He's been great to discuss ideas with and is always ready to connect us with people we should talk with to help bring our programs to more learners. .
