🎉🌍 WHAT AN AMAZING EID PARTY! 🌍🎉

Our Chosan CIC Eid Celebration was a huge success and our biggest event so far! ❤️

We were delighted to see so many children, parents, and families come together to celebrate in a fun, safe and culturally rich environment. The atmosphere was fantastic, with children proudly wearing their beautiful traditional outfits and showcasing the richness and diversity of African culture.

🏆 Congratulations to our Best Traditional Outfit winners!
💃 The children enjoyed music, dancing, games and spending time together with friends and family.

A special thank you goes to all the parents who generously donated cash, food and drinks to help make the event such a success. Your support and community spirit are truly appreciated.

🎂 We would also like to give a very special thank you to B_F_Cakes for donating the beautiful and delicious cake, which was enjoyed by everyone and was one of the highlights of the day!

The best feedback came from the children themselves, with many saying:
⭐ "This was the best Eid party ever!"

Seeing the smiles, laughter and joy on their faces reminds us why Chosan CIC exists – to bring communities together, celebrate our heritage and create positive experiences for our young people.

Thank you to everyone who attended and supported us. We look forward to seeing you at our next event!

What a truly special and powerful Chosan CIC workshop we had on 25th April! 🌍✨

This month’s theme, “Life Before WiFi & Smartphones”, took us on a beautiful journey back in time — and what a success it was!

We were blessed with three generations coming together, creating a unique and meaningful experience for everyone. A heartfelt thank you to Grandma Ajaratou Ngoneh John, who shared her childhood experiences and how they used to entertain themselves — inspiring both children and parents alike 💛

The session was full of life and culture:
🎤 Storytelling
🎶 Singing & clapping games
💃 Group dancing
🥁 Children trying the djembe for the first time
🏃 Skipping, musical chairs & freeze dance

Most importantly, the children had the opportunity to disconnect from screens and reconnect with real joy, culture and community — and they absolutely loved it!

The energy, laughter and feedback from both parents and children were incredible. This is exactly what Chosan CIC stands for:
🌍 Cultural pride
🤝 Community connection
🚀 Youth empowerment

We are building something truly special — thank you to everyone who continues to support and believe in us.

What an amazing and successful Chosan CIC workshop today! 🎉

We are proud to see our sessions growing, with a fantastic turnout including many new children and parents joining our community. Due to increasing popularity, we even had to move to a bigger hall — a huge milestone for us! 🙌

A special thank you to:
🌟 Ms Haddy Jeng for once again delivering an engaging and inspiring PowerPoint session
🌟 Njoba for organising the venue and ensuring everything ran smoothly
🌟 Ya Marie Cham for leading on food and drinks
🌟 All our wonderful parent volunteers who stepped in to support

We are especially proud that this was led by a strong all-female organising team 💪

The children truly shone on 28/03/2026🌟
They wrote and confidently presented beautiful poems on “Why I Love My Family” — showing creativity, confidence and deep understanding of family values.

The session was filled with:
💛 Love
🤝 Sharing
🎤 Participation
🌍 Cultural pride
🚀 Youth empowerment

The positive feedback from both parents and children has been overwhelming, and it motivates us to continue building something meaningful for our community.

This is just the beginning. Watch this space!
