Cupcakes for Madiba birthday celebrations!!<br />

KLEINMOND - On Thursday,<br />

18 July, young and old came<br />

together in celebrating the<br />

birthday of Nelson Mandela,<br />

one of the most humble and<br />

respectable individuals in the<br />

world. Hangklip/ Kleinmond<br />

community members<br />

crËches, Kleinmond Primary<br />

school, learners, businesses ñ<br />

SPAR & SASOL, individual<br />

ladies) joined in and baked a<br />

total of 2013 cupcakes for the<br />

celebrations. The cupcakes<br />

were beautifully decorated in<br />

the colours of our national flag<br />

and ìhappy birthdayî and of<br />

course were very yummy to<br />

eat afterwards.<br />

The dayís programme started<br />

off with a brief speech, by Joan<br />

Daries, on the history of<br />

Madibaís role in South Africa<br />

that was very enlightening to<br />

the young learners. Followed<br />

by a quiz session during which<br />

learners were able to win<br />

prizes. The community members<br />

young and old then joined<br />

in to sing ìHappy birthday<br />

Madibaî in all 3 languages<br />

pre-dominantly spoken in<br />

Kleinmond. Entertainment<br />

was provided by the Kleinmond<br />

Handevat Marimba<br />

Magic group that is led by<br />

Stefne van Dyk. The crowd<br />

was also given a demonstration<br />

by Kleinmond Fire<br />

Department and ended the<br />

event off by singing our National<br />

Anthem: Nkosi Sikelela.<br />

This is the 2nd year that<br />
