Children from the Izivunguvungu MSC Foundation celebrated Reconciliation Day, today Monday December 16, with a performance at he SA Navy West dockyard. Commander Mike Oldham said the group prepared special music for the this year’s theme “healing historical wounds and forging a new future”. Commander Oldham started the groups as part of a Navy Outreach Project within the restrictions of the 1980s. Assisted for many years by Margaret Kindo, who was removed from Simon’s Town as a young girl, Commander Oldham said he was delighted that “they can now help to develop the talents of such a diversity of youth, helping prepare them through music for a new future”.
