Human Rights Photoshoot

In the previous week we devided the class into two groups from age 8-12 and age 13-16. One of the reasons I decided to separate the class is because we have only four cameras so its a bit of a challenge to go out and take photographs when we are a big group, and also the class will be more manageable.

I also took some time away from class with the kids in their respective groups and we went to a nearby informal settlement called Joe Slovo for our first real photoshoot - that was about human rights. Before we went out we sat and we brainstormed, talked about human right and tried come up with a way of presenting our concerpt through our photographs. I enjoyed watching the kids working hard trying to get the best out of their cameras.

We will be having an exhibition of these pictures at the St Francis hall in Langa on the 21-03-2011, There will be other activities on the day from the other programs of Project Playground such as drama, dance & music, djemba and the soccer boys will also have a thing or two to say about human rights. Please come and join us we will really appreciate your support.
