Heritage Day

This week at the Project, we celebrated Heritage Day! Heritage Day is a national holiday that celebrates the array of different peoples that make up South Africa. It celebrates the importance of all South Africans in the development and culture of the country as a whole. At Itipni, everyone showed up in their traditional dress, our morning singing was especially exuberant, and the preschoolers spent most of the day dancing and singing! Jenny even brought me a couple traditional items to wear and Masakude did my make up! Everyone got a big kick out of it. The whole community was alive and buzzing and I don’t think I saw a single frown all day!
