A day with the orphans

Milja and Matias's school has a link with an orpahage that's situated in one of the townships. Milja and the other seniors organised a day out for the orphans. The underpriviliged kids came to visit the school on Saturday.

Milja, Dan, India and I all went to help out, and to play with the children. I did face painting, Milja and Dan took photos and helped with crafts. The other students made a braai and organised games such as football, egg-spoon races, water balloons etc.

I've never painted so many monsters before. I did the usual set of butterflies, but all the boys and some of the girls wated me to make them monsters, vampires, reptiles and bats. One of the girls wanted me to paint her a pink snake.
