If you are planning for a year, sow rice
If you are planning for a decade, plant trees
If you are planning for a lifetime, educate people

Vision:

Our vision is to take a delegation of young people from Norfolk schools, Study Centres and PfS (Playing for Success) and members of the Norfolk community to participate in a range of sharing and learning opportunities that use the FIFA World Cup in 2010 as the motivation and inspiration to acquire new skills, establish friendships and encourage collaboration between Norfolk and South Africa.
