Four-year-old Riley, who was diagnosed with a life threatening illness absolutely loves playing with dinosaurs and Lego and has always wanted to see large animatronic dinosaurs. Eastgate Centre Management willingly accepted to grant little Riley’s wish to explore The Dino Expo at Eastgate Shopping Centre on Saturday, 4 June 2016. Riley will be bringing his older brother, Joshua (six years old) to the Expo. Riley will enjoy the Jurassic Tour, Wits University Original Rock Fossils, Dino Musical Theatre, Dino Fossil Digging Competition, fun at the jumping castle and colouring in with his favourite colours, blue and yellow, at the Dino Colour-in station.
5 children from Tateni Community Care Centre in Mamelodi will be joining little Riley at The Dino Expo at Eastgate Shopping Centre.
The Reach For A Dream children will be receiving a scrumptious meal at Wichita Spur as well as a Dino gift from the finest toy shop in the world, Hamleys South Africa. Steven Warner, Wichita Spur Owner, says: “We are proud to be part of such a great initiative and to have the little dreamers enjoy a taste for life at our restaurant”. Philip Paphitis, CEO of Hamleys South Africa says “We are happy to provide the children with the opportunity to play with their favourite toys. Most of these children have never received a new toy in their life and this heartfelt gesture will lift their spirits.”
Takudzwa Madhina, Reach For A Dream Foundation Project Coordinator in Pretoria said: “Reach For A Dream seeks to fulfil the dreams of children faced with life-threatening illnesses. We thank you, Eastgate, once again for your willingness to assist. We truly appreciate it.”
Tshepo Monnamoroe, Operations Manager of Eastgate Shopping Centre says “We thank all the tenants who are participating in this great initiative to truly make a difference in the lives of our little shoppers”.
