Egypt Day

By -
Today was Egypt Day. I was in a group with Camryn, Christian and Armand. We made a mummy out of clay and we got to cover it in toilet paper or bandages. We put one of the mummies in a sarcophagus. We designed a lid for it. Each one of us made a canopic jar, the lid of my canopic jar is a human. We all took a lot of photos and we had a lot of fun. I enjoyed it when we made the canopic jars. Making the mummies was my favourite part. My canopic jar holds the liver. Overall I enjoyed the whole day!

A day in the life of a child in an informal settlement

By -
Today was...something else. In the morning there was a huge storm, a humongous storm, I was very scared. There was water dripping into the shack, running down the walls. Next I had to go get some water...barefoot. It was cold, wet and windy. Then I went back home. I was thirsty, if only the government would give us more water. I knew that the water was for supper tonight, but I didn't want to go get some more water from the tap that was so far away. Some children are so lucky, they can go to school, my only dream is to go to school. Later that night, mom made supper, not much. I went outside to go to the toilet. It's not nice to go to a dirty toilet with no door. When I was finally in bed, I felt cold, I switched on the light. Thank goodness I have a Khaya power bottle. Finally I went to sleep. What a day. What will happen tomorrow?
