Local construction company gives school a facelift
“As a company, we believe in lending a helping hand to help those in need, especially children and elders.”
KwaThema – Muzomusha Primary School has received a make-over on their gravel grounds with the help of Hybrid Construction & Projects last Tuesday.
The school won R15 000 prize money towards the renovations of the school during the Cashbuild Art-at-Heart competition earlier this year.
CEO of Hybrid Construction & Projects Leonard Nkonyane says as part of the annual social outreach initiatives they identified organisations in need.
“We learned about the school’s prize money and decided to offer labour towards renovating the school.
“We approached the school and they told us they planned to construct paving on the school grounds.
“We were touched by the condition of the school grounds, they were uneven and the teachers explained that on rainy days learners are forced to walk in the mud.
“We offered the company’s machinery and labour for paving the school grounds,” he says.

Leonard says they are happy they were able to improve the school’s learning environment.
“As a company, we believe in lending a helping hand to help those in need, especially children and elders.
“We cannot always depend on government but be the change we want to see,” he says.
School principal Aaron Magudulela expressed his gratitude towards the renovations saying they could not afford the amount of work that needed to be carried out.
“We have been trying to find companies to construct the pavement but all their quotations were higher than the prize money.

“The cheapest quotation was around R23 000, which the school could not afford.
“We had resolved to only cover a few metres at a time through the years before Hybrid Construction & Projects approached us.
“We were happy when they informed us to only focus on affording the material and they will take care of the labour,” he says.
