The Wattville Library together with the Department of Social Services and other stakeholders visited the Emandleni crèches on March 23.
Four crèches participated in the programme that was held at the Emandleni soccer ground.
Children between the age of three and six from Isihlahla Semfundo Day Care Centre, Esijijini and Juda Crèche, Bongumusa and Tree of Life took part in the campaign that aimed at teaching them about the functioning of a library.

According to Million Khoza, Emandleni member of the committee, the programme was aimed at teaching children how to navigate their way through the library, finding the books and equipment on offer.
“We want to encourage them to participate in sports and to play, while we watch them smile and enjoy themselves throughout the day.
“The kids giggled with excitement, having the time of their lives,” said Khoza.
The stakeholders with community leaders participated in the event and volunteered their time to teach the kids how to ride on bicycles and scooters.
Khoza thanked Emandleni and the stakeholders that participated and their commitment to uplift the children of Emandleni.
