NCCF World Aids Day commemoration – Bird Garden Montecasino

On the 30^th of November, The Nashua Children’s Charity Foundation (NCCF) took 120 children from MC Kharbai School to visit the Montecasino Bird Garden, in commemoration of World Aids Day on the 1^st of December. Welcomed by Costa and his team, the kids were delighted when they saw the Mugg & Bean stand.

The group went through the magnificent gardens and were exposed to bird and reptile life. They were enthralled and made animal signs and sounds. After the bird show – which had the children glued to their seats – they were treated to petting a Burmese python, other reptiles and a photo opportunity with an owl. Four children also excitedly donated R10 each to Russel the Crow.

The Bird Garden was set up especially for the MC Kharbai group, with a wonderful playground, jumping castles and slush machines. After the activities, the children were treated to a delicious lunch, popcorn, ice-cream, candy floss and gift bags. The excited children were in party mode while Mangwanani Spa treated the adult care-givers to a neck and shoulder massage.

It was a day to remember. A special thanks to all the sponsors, including the Flamingo Café and Magic Company.
