After much confusion, we went back to Youngsfield today and I got to see Ouwa again! It looks like the High Court order will not be enough to evict the refugees at Youngsfield, and the mandate only pertains to another camp called Blue Waters. They were trying to include Youngsfield under this umbrella, but hopefully court proceedings will take at least a year and this will buy the families at Youngsfield some time to get on their feet. A girl named Sulega’s tutor could not make it today, but it worked out well because Ouwa and Sulega are best friends, so I got to take them both today. Watching them work together made me love them even more. Ouwa really excels when she can help someone. She was never pushy, but you could see her excitement—she wanted Sulega to get what they were working on too.
