The Magic of MiDesk Global

A poem by Ayanda Dlamini, Grade 9 student at Hlonipa Primary School

The magic of MiDesk Global. Have you heard of MiDesk Global? It is something so cool. A bag, a desk, for both home and school. roll of big wheels through dirty rocks or sand. It helps you learn better,  Just as they planned. It has a chair and a desk and a light, all in one. With power from sunlight just like the sun. You can charge up your tablet or even your cellphone. It is like having a classroom all on your own.It is light to pull and built to last. With space for your books, your dreams and your tasks.It is made to be strong but doesn’t weigh much. MiDesk Global comes from South Africa. Proud and true. To make learning easier for kids just like me. With each roll of wheels my future takes flight. My school time becomes a delight.
