So yesterday was the first day the kids could use the playground. The concrete had to settle and dry first so they wouldn't rip it out of the ground or anything. This was really difficult for them, as the playground was finished on Wednesday and they had to spend all day on Thursday staring at it longingly. So, when I got to work on Friday the kids were all basically just standing there and staring at it. My coworker and I rounded them up and tried to instruct them best as how to be safe on the playground. However, every time Zodwa took a breath they started running towards the playground. Anyways, when they finally got to it the noise was so loud pretty much every one at work (we had an event with about 500 community members at the centre yesterday) came to see what the heck was going on...It was amazing. I really can't describe it. All I can say is this gift that all of you gave to the kids of Bhekuzulu and all the hard work that went into this was totally worth it.
THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!!
love,
