Making rainmakers while the sun shines
Grade R children at King David Victory Park Pre-Primary school spent a creative morning making rainmakers in honour of the book Nomvula’s Big Shake, Rattle and Rainbow Adventure. The book tells the story of Nomvula, and how making rainmakers saved the yellowwood tree.

The book, written by Thalia Hoff, a parent at the school, explores the beauty of South Africa and its unique treasures. Hoff guided the children in making their own rain makers using symbolic items such as proteas, corn, jacaranda seeds, grass, bells, beads, and more.
