May 2019

The Muzukidz classroom is abuzz with activity and excitement, as international Suzuki teacher Francisco Canada Valverde has decided to make Cape Town his new home, in order to join the project on a permanent basis.

Francisco, or Paco as the children call him, came to Cape Town in January 2019 to be exposed to the local culture and do some teaching in his free time.  After meeting Maria and the Muzukidz children, he decided to dedicate the full duration of his visit to the project, by teaching and assisting in developing the curriculum.

Of course, Paco fell more and more in love with the project, and made the life changing decision to move to Cape Town, leaving behind his work and family in Madrid, and committing to a project that has become part of his life. 

Francisco has already taken the children’s playing to another level, and has enabled us to take on more children.  THANK YOU, PACO
