Molweni Creche Paint Up

Saturday 7th August was the BIG PAINT UP at ENTOKOZWENI CRECHE in Lower Molweni. The event was attended by 15 (and one little) volunteers who painted pretty much the entire building in just over 2 hours. The volunteers had a great time and got themselves totally covered in paint.

The event is part of a series aimed at upgrading the creche using money raised at a quiz evening held a couple of years ago. Between Ward Councillor Tex Collins and COM Fabiola MacRae, everything was provided on the day (paint, rollers, brushes, ladders, cleaning rags and a supply of cool drinks for the weary).

Anyone wishing to get to the creche can follow Tex’s instructions below:
“How to get to the crèche is a piece of cake. Get onto Inanda road and just keep driving right through Waterfall (past the Waterfall shopping centre) through Crestholme, into Molweni. Don’t stop just keep going down the very steep hill (concrete surface) past a brick reservoir on your right hand side and suddenly you will see my big blue bakkie on the side of the road. There will be some DA signs so you can’t miss the place. Remember do not be tempted to turn off even if you think you are lost, just keep going and you will find me. Please drive carefully as there a many pedestrians, goats, cattle errant taxi drivers and the occasional fat pig on the road. Lot of little people who play football on the road so keep a watchful eye out.”

All flights into Durban up to and including Friday 30 April 2010 will operate from the current airport. From 01 May 2010, all flights will officially operate out of the new airport which is located approximately 35 kilometers north of the city centre.
Please factor in extra time to get to and from KSIA and bear in mind that if you are travelling in one direction before 30 April and back after 01 May, that you may need a shuttle between the two airports.

Thereafter transportation between both airports will be for the passenger’s account and they will have to arrange transfers themselves.
