He has already started looking for money for their trip.
a�?I am already looking for sponsorship as each contestant needs about $5 900,a�? he added.
Kids will always be kids, in an event that they win, they already have plans for their loot.
a�?I will buy a bicycle for myself and another for my best friend. The best thing for me in this trip is that I will get to go to where the Spiderman flicks started,a�? said Sibusiso.
For Sifiso, its along the same line.
a�?I will buy a snare drum and sneakers,a�? he said.
