Kids have fun with umbrellas and treats

It seems their prayers worked as Mbombela received 15 millilitres in some parts of the city over the weekend.

All the Kiddos pupils had to bring their umbrellas along to participate in the prayer for rain. Surprise and Zoe from Communio Church also paid the preschool a visit and put on a grand show and storytelling session about Noah and the big rain.

Other activities on the day included an adventure course, jumping castle, face painting, marshmallow braai, ice-cream cones and hot dogs.

Grace Jacobs, owner of the academy, said the children had an absolute ball and were exhausted by the time the jumping castle was deflated.
