GAME DRIVE
 Game drive[1] or sometimes also written gamedrive[2] is a word which is based on two words, namely game and drive. The word game refers to animals that are not domesticated, the so called wildlife. The word drive refers to a drive with a vehicle.

A game drive is usually part of a safari, a trip or a journey. It can be carried out with own cars like in national parks or game reserves, or it can be a guided tour in specially for that purpose adapted off-road vehicles lead by a professional safari guide. Those 4 × 4 game viewing vehicles are designed to allow a safer trip for tourists. On farms and lodges however, a game drive is an adventure that entails viewing wildlife in an off road car, always accompanied by safari guides or the farmer himself. They will explain animal's behavior and interpret the bush.

Aerobic
activity can lower the incidence of high blood pressure and high cholesterol. It can increase the amount of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) - which is the good cholesterol that your body wants and uses. It can help you lose, control or maintain your weight. It can help to alleviate muscle pain and soreness.

The role of primary education is to ensure the broad-based development of pupils. This means ensuring that all pupils are able to develop their cognitive, social, emotional, cultural and physical skills to the best of their abilities, preparing them for their further school career.

Knowledge is power. Information is liberating. Education is the premise of progress, in every society, in every family.
