A Special Treat

During the September holidays Amanzimtoti Round Table treated seven of our 'aftercare' boys to a trip to Johannesburg. These boys have been successfully reunited with their families and attend schools in the Durban area. Qaphela, in picture, wrote to thank the Round Tablers for a wonderful holiday. Below is his letter to I Care.

"Dear Madam,
I write this letter to thank you for a lovely holiday which my friends and I enjoyed in Johannesburg.
It was our first time in Johannesburg. We enjoyed a lot of activities like touching cubs, feeding the giraffe, seeing different kinds of fossils, going on a horseride, seeing kinds of birds like the biggest owl, the vultures, the toucans, the Macaws and the parrot. The diffrent (sic) kinds of game also amazed us.
Thank you very much I Care and Round Table for your hospitality and good accommodation. Thank you a lot for a once in a lifetime opportunity.
Yours faithfully,
Qaphela Mkhwanazi."

It is obvious from this letter that the boys' visit to the Johannesburg Zoo made the biggest impression.
