GENERAL CLEANING

Thursday was a a very busy day for the Eastleigh Community Centre fraternity as we engage ourselves in a general cleaning exercise dubbed no taka taka (No littering) within the organization that lasted for six hours. The exercise kicked off at around 10 O'clock with a brief meeting behind our main hall and all members agreed to the outlined provisions. From their faces, you could figure out that this was a well awaited day. Cleaning materials distributed to various groups engaged in different exercises. At the end of it all, members converged in our main hall and were treated to lots of entertainment ranging from poem, skits, dance as well as political satire.

Hurry up ladies, we need to finish this work on time!

A teacher will always be there to guide and co-operate with the pupils
Slashing grass and pruning the fence is my favorite chore.


My friend, this responsibility is for us and let us work as a team!


After the end of the general cleaning exercise,participants were treated to a jig by some of Eastleigh Community Centre staff members.To many, this was another tough exercise!!!
