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 />
(womenís groups, churches,<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 />
