Thursday we went to a church and spent the day learning about and participating in various art forms. We learned dances of groups from the South African region and the kids giggled a lot but all did well. Our teacher was Khoisan and she sang some Khoisan songs as she danced and taught us how to make some of the click sounds our tongues are not accustom to. After dance we had 4 drummers come and bring lots of drums for the kids to play. We did a series of call and response drumming songs and the kids were totally transfixed. In the afternoon a young man had a drama workshop with us and we did a lot of praise poetry within the workshop – it was a lot of fun and the kids had a great day participating in all the activities. In the evening we went to the big theatre in Cape Town and saw a productions of Greese.
