On February 4th 2009, Peter Martinez was invited to Nata Primary School Standard Seven class and taught a class about basic HIV/AIDS prevention. The students got to learn more about the virus. The students were shy about asking questions and commenting on the virus. They also asked Mr. Martinez to come back to the school and talk about other health issues. He promised to come back.

Kenewang Rancholo was there with Peter to help explain when the student’s did not understand something he said about HIV/AIDS. Peter is going back to the school next week to teach a lesson on STI’s, or Sexually Transmitted Infections.

I think this is a very good thing to have in Nata because lots of these kids suffer from the disease, and they don’t have many opportunities to really learn about it and what it is. I think its important for them to know about it because it could help them prevent spreading it, and how to make it easier for themselves to live with the disease. I hope things like this continue in Nata.
