Team 3

SWS3 Kosi Bay school project 5/8/14

Today was pretty insane, I helped with some painting and then afterwards went into grade 5's class and helped the children and also taught a little. After returning back to camp we went to visit a Zulu homestead.

After picking up the child and beginning the walk to her home the girls in my group were terribly shy so I started talking to the girl. After reaching her house we sat down and started on her homework, after a while the girls finally stopped being shy and began to help with the homework and talking to the child and her family. After completing the homework we played games outside, duck duck goose was good fun and the children taught us another game which was similar to stuck in the mud but used a tennis ball. After the games there was a mass selfie session and a fair bit of photo bombing, unfortunately all good things must come to an end and we had to leave after thanking the mother for allowing us into their home. She was very happy to receive the food parcel that we took with us and she just kept saying thank you, thank you, thank you.

The kids walked us down the path back to the school and gave us sweets, but since I don't like sweets I said that she can have it after tea and not to tell her mum. I hope I don't get her into trouble! All in all an epic day that I will never forget.
