There’s something special about the Nova Pioneer Class of 2019 across Kenya and South Africa. The cohort of young men from Kenya and young women and men from South Africa were our first ever class to officially graduate from Nova Pioneer.

At the graduation ceremonies held towards the end of 2019 across Kenya and South Africa, there was a pervasive feeling of accomplishment and hope for the imminent year outside school. With 2020 just halfway through, it’s pretty clear that it’s been a tumultuous year.

We caught up with three of our alumni who are doing their part in making the most out of the year. Phillip (Nova Pioneer Boys, ‘19), Masego (Nova Pioneer Ormonde ‘19) and Jabu (Nova Pioneer Ormonde, ‘19), spent Friday evening with us on 1oth July. They gave us hope and encouragement through their stories of fortitude and perseverance.

You can catch up with their inspiring stories through the recorded recap down below.
