Gifts Under the Christmas Tree | English Literacy Classes

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from the team of VT’s and children at Uhuru Walk English Literacy Classes. It was our last class of the year 2021! We decorated our very own Christmas tree with handmade ornaments and spied for festival items around us in a game of I-Spy. The younger ones played with snow, making snow chapati’s and winter wonderlands. Each child hung up their ornaments on the tree and were later surprised with gifts at the bottom of the tree – a 650ml insulated water bottle customized with their name. These bottles are ideal for their school and home usage, and we were overjoyed to see them excitedly showing their friends their named bottle. After unboxing their gifts, they celebrated the onset of the holiday season with a richly baked Santa Claus cake!

Our VT’s will resume lessons in January and we welcome more of you to join us in this exciting journey to be more in touch with your own limitless abilities to learn through our fun and practice-based training.
