Children's Day celebrations have become an annual event on the South African

of Hope" and the purpose of this day is to create awareness about the rights of
children and also to promote equal opportunities for children. This year's
celebrations come in style in Limpopo. On the morning of the event a medical
assessment will be given to children. Those under five will be immunised
against polio and be provided with vitamin A and other related medication for
this age.
As for the entertainment, the children's carnival will open from 09h00 to
17h00 and the children will be allowed to enjoy a kiddie's kingdom of jumping
castles, water slides, kgati, dibeke, sack and bottle racing. Also appearing

Bambino's calibre.
Various government departments will have stalls showcasing what they are
doing for the children.
