Our Lights On event was conducted with the help of the after-school participants.
We had a family night where games. movies and the like was conducted. We served light refreshments and the parents and children got to meet those parents and children who they did not know very well.
The event was really fun and tiring at the end of the evening all was tired and ready to go home and get some rest.
Truly looking forward to next year.
