In the next chapter of our book Plop meets and old lady who tells him that dark is kind because it hides her wrinkles, gnarled hands and shabby furniture. It also gives her time to think and remember her husband and family.
For this reason I took my class to visit the residents of Kloof Rest home. Each child brought a gift of chocolates or flowers to give to the grannies. They chatted to them about their life growing up and how things have changed. The children read and played cards with the grannies. We ended off by singing three songs.
I was really touched at how much these old people enjoyed having a visit from us. A big thank you to my wonderful parents for being so generous with the flowers and sweets that you sent, it was greatly appreciated.
