A journey to Moeng College

FRANCISTOWN: Our long wait for the Moeng College bound trucks to pick us from the Palapye railway station had already exposed us to many risks.The motor vehicles that incessantly splashed some stationery water trapped in the black cotton soil at the station bothered us a lot. The rains had come early that year and the thick dark clouds that hung above promised that rain could return anytime.Palapye's known pickpockets were also lurking around the station area to possibly make hay from us as some of us were careless with our valued possessions.Moeng College, which was popularly known as MOCOL, opened its doors to its first students in 1949.
