The camp at the farm did not happen, so I took the Anchor of Hope kids to Jeffreysbay and will take the Acvv kids end of November to the farm.
We had a good camp. There was a beautiful atmosphere among all of us. I taught them how to play “donkey” with spoons, but I changed it to “loser”. Bongiwe did art and stories and Bongani led the spiritual discussions.
The week after the camp the volunteers of Acvv Poplar Ave took their kids to the beach for a afternoon of fun. They played games on the sand and then ended the afternoon with Ice cream.
Tomorrow is Diaz's price giving and we, the volunteers have been invited. I think this year at Diaz has gone very well. It is so much easier to help kids sooner rather than later.
At the Acvv we will have our price giving on 13 November. This is always a highlight for the children and their parents. Two weeks later the camp on the farm will take place, which will bring us to the end of the school year.
I am already starting my search for volunteers for next year. Please contact me if you are interested or just spread the word around.
