Stanley Street Christmas Party

The children of Vistarus get taken out and spoiled over the Christmas season.  This year was no different!  Stanley Street in Central gets blocked off and the children get entertained and given gifts.





We want to thank each of our sponsors for making this possible again this year.

Santa Shoe box Party


16 December 2010 11:00 am, what an exciting morning!!! Something to look forward to if you are a kid. Oh yes Santa Shoebox comes to Vistarus!  The children were bubbling with anticipation and excitement as they came into the hall were the party was held, a long table was piled high with all the pressies from Santa’s Shoebox. 

The party started with the handing out of sweet packets that was sponsored by Pizza Guys from Greenacres. The kids were so excited, and all you saw was packets being opened helped by the adults from Pizza Guys and Santa’s Shoebox. As they were enjoying the sweeties Kim told the story of how Santa’s Shoebox started.  Then it was time for the real excitement to start as each child was called forward to receive their present, oh boy! And had to wait for everyone to  receive theirs before opening it.  Wow…. and was the excitement great as each kid opened his/her shoebox and saw what was inside, you can just imagine the noise level and loud appreciation when they saw what was in the Shoebox.   The day ended as the  kids sang their popular song “Ons se baie baie dankie”!!!
