“Twelve years is an amazing time. We went through Covid, we went through a lot of changes. Today we are just celebrating because God gave us the grace to still be here,” said Jooste.
Ligstad’s crèche, pre-schoolers, and aftercare children were visibly excited to see a cake marked Ligstad 12, while gathering around the centre’s steel bench for a photo opportunity.
