Daniel told us lots about his grandpa - He was born as the second world war was ending. he loved to play marbles, tops and build kites. Guy Fawkes was his favourite time of the year because he got to make a guy and set it alight. Movies were in black and white and were shown on a big reeled projector! His whole months grocery bill was a whopping R60 - how times have changed!
Daniel showed us this iron that his grandpa used. You fill it with hot coals to warm up before ironing. |
Shristhi had to interview her grandfather over the phone because he lives in Joburg. He grew up in a very strict home - children were seen and not heard! He loved to ride his bike. Shristhi said that he had to be very well dressed for school - there was never such a thing as civvies days! He said that children of his time really appreciated what they had unlike children of today that take so much for granted!
Well done children we enjoyed your orals.
