Kukhona amathiphu amaningi kakhulu kakhulu kule nkambo kodwa eyodwa engizokuhlanganyela nawe ukuthatha izithombe ku-cameraphone yakho ngaphambi nangesikhathi somsebenzi ngamunye ukuze uthathe izinto ngaphandle kokuba urekhode lokho okubuyela emuva kuqala nokuthi kuphi.
Siphetha ekilasini ngokuthola ukuthi singasusa kanjani i-sealant kusuka ebhodini elizungezile bese sisebenzisa isibhamu semastic nesitifiketi sokuvuselela. Lena yilapho kuphela ngibona othisha bebukeka sengathi besaba njengoba sasixwayiswe ukuthi i-sealant inganamathela kuyo yonke into ngakho-ke sasebenza kancane futhi sinamaphilisi amaningi ephepha.
Bonke abafundi banikezwa iziqondiso zamandla ezisebenzayo ngempela (ngezithombe) kanye ne-glossary yemigomo ekuqaleni kosuku, futhi amanothi apayipi athunyelwa nge-imeyili kungekudala emva kwenkambo.
Usuku lonke liphathelene nokwakha ukuzethemba futhi ngaya ekhaya futhi ngilungise izinto ezimbalwa ezidinga ukwenza iminyaka kodwa ngangingazi ukuthi ngingakwenza kanjani.
