Our Love Bugs won! 🏆 After 2 weeks of practicing egg & spoon, sack races & more, they brought home the Winning Team Trophy at Capricorn Primary's Community ECD Sports Day. So proud of our Love Bugs. Preparation + good sportsmanship = humble winners. #ngo #lovebugs #sportsday

This term: My Monster 👹We're helping children identify the monsters of our times through creativity - giving them space to express concerns, explore healthy ways to fight them & spark change. All rooted in compassion for self & others. #ButterflyArtProject #Heart4Art #MyMonster

Our gorgeous Love Bugs enjoying “The Parachute Game” in the sunshine. The aim of the game is to get a ball through the hole in the middle as many times as possible. This is a wonderful activity to build their hand-eye coordination and team work. #LoveBugs #FreePlay #FunintheSun – at Cape Town, South Africa
