Community Service Project at Lhalane

Organized by YFC, 4 Gold Peer Educators from Percy High School joined me at Lhalane this week. Through GOLD, YFC teaches leadership skills to high school students who then educate their peers in life skill issues.

One of my biggest challenges at Lhalane has been game time with these little children that don't speak English. The children were all smiles as Xhosa speaking kids played games with them in their own language. I was thrilled to see even the littlest ones participating. Amidst the singing, clapping, and foot stomping, one looked up at me and asked "duck, duck?". I guess my games aren't so bad after all!
