A group of Toroa students have been reading 'The Cay' by Theodore Taylor. One of the main characters - Timothy- believes that there is a d'jumbi with them. A D'jumbi is an evil spirit that comes to haunt people and make trouble.
Timothy makes an effigy of the d'jumbi to ward off the evil spirits. The reading group have made their own effigies.

To scare away D'jumbi I will break it's head and rip the cloth. I used woven flax and braided twine for Stew Cat.

To scare D'jumbi I am going to pop the balloons. This should be enough to ward off the evil spirits.
