NGAMO VOCATIONAL COLLEGE & LIVESTOCK FARM

Ayanda Alice Ncube

Age 18 | Zikwakweni

AAyanda finished her O Level at Hwange High School and set her sights on Agriculture Engineering, a subject she now

pairs with Crop Production in her coursework at Ngamo.

At home in Zikwakweni she was raised by her grandmother, who supports the household by selling vegetables. Money

has been tight for as long as she can remember.

Running a broiler project is what she names as her biggest source of motivation, something she treats as more than just

an assignment. She's candid that what she values most from the course is learning practical, hands on ability rather

than sitting through theory.

Her ambition is to become an agricultural engineer, and she sees Ngamo as the place laying the groundwork, term by

term, for that future.

“I want to achieve my goals.”

Previously at Hwange High School. Ayanda is now part of the training programme at Ngamo Vocational College and Livestock Farm.
