Children amaze with original poems
Junior Ndlovu is only eight years old and thinks he is a future leader.
The JFB Poetry Class for February 28 saw 25 children attend the class.
“We are building these citizens to become accomplished writers. The plan is to help them focus on making school a success and achieve or improve their writing skills. I have a lot of faith in these children; they show a spirit of dedication and agility,” said Mrs Faradiba Morton.
“They possess the potential to become great leaders. I believe that we are on the right path with them. I urge the community to support our children at the Jozi Book Fair this year in September. Investing in the future of this country starts with the children and this will only happen if our community supports them to achieve these dreams. If their dreams come true, ours will too. We must dismantle poverty with education and that is how you become truly free,” she added.

Wesley Chitunda, (9) – Education
Educations is the secret of getting ahead
Education is the key to my future
I have learned to love school
Education will take you on other levels

Places you have never been
Education is my power
Without this I will be nothing

Shaun Zambara (10) – Stop Crime
I hate crime, if it doesn’t stop in time
It’s not really fine, crime is bad
Everything around it makes me sad
Crime shortens my life line
Stop drinking ugly wine
You behave just like a swine
Crime is not meant for this life of mine
Stop crime
