The HOPE Committee

The HOPE committee recently hosted Nomonde Mtshazo, the first girl of colour to have attended St Mary’s, and her sister, Zingisa Mtshazo, at an evening Boma Chat. Mrs Elizabeth Khumalo and Dr Peggy Sekele joined the siblings. It was a beautiful evening with a richly diverse audience who shared experiences highlighting the complexities – sometimes sad and painful; sometimes amusing; often poignant – of our collective past. It was impossible to walk away without feeling inspired by the tremendous courage of these brave women.
