67 Minutes of Painting on Nelson Mandela Day

| Mtembeni school gates, newly painted |
In honour of South Africa’s former
president, Nelson Mandela, everyone is challenged to give 67minutes of their
time to help their community on the 18th of July. The Mtembeni
Primary School in Welverdiend was kind enough to allow us to join in on their
67 minute activity this year, painting their buildings.
When we arrived, with paint rollers and
brushes in hand, we were greeted with kindness. Some of the children’s parents
were there to help out and we were encouraged to join them. When it was time for the kids to go home, they started running around and almost every single one of them
greeted us with the same “hello, how are you?” and "I am fine thank you, how are you?".
The day was really fun and we enjoyed
helping the community with this task.
Thank you to Mtembeni and the Welverdiend
community.
