This Week Kai Crooks-Chisano will talk on Camp I Am

 

Camp I Am is an activity and skills building programme for children and is an international organisation.   

Our motto “I Am whatever I want to be as long as it’s good for me and my community” reflects our unique camp experience in which every child feels cared for, is confident to express his/her feelings, and empowered to imagine whatever they want to be. 

 

Camp I Am encourages children to step outside of their comfort zone, which generally leads to growth.

Objectives of the Programme

Aim:                 

Provide activities for children in selected under-resourced areas during the school holidays

Objectives:

• Provide safe, supervised activities for children 7 -15 years old.
• Provide a specialised skills program that includes academic topics, values, creative arts, social and life skills education, and sports.
• Foster dialogue, mutual understanding, and sharing of experiences among children.

Saturday 11th April.  Social Brunch 9:30 @ Bembom Dowerglen Plaza, Sycamore Drive, Dowerglen.

It was a Business Meeting.

Next Week

Johan de Wet of Dewetshof Estate will talk to us about the estate and the wines they produce.

As the first registered wine estate in the Robertson Wine Valley, De Wetshof has become known internationally as South Africa’s eminent Chardonnay House due to the pioneering role it played in introducing this noble Burgundian grape to the country.

The De Wet family’s winemaking heritage can, however, be traced back to 1694 when the first De Wets arrived at the Cape and immediately made a mark on the South African wine industry.

Today, De Wetshof is one of the few third generation wine estates in South Africa. Here Johann de Wet has taken-up the role of CEO and is also responsible for De Wetshof’s vineyards, while brother Peter runs finances and logistics. Both are also actively involved in winemaking and strategy along with their father Danie.
