Tsakane – Learners from schools all over South Africa rose to the challenge and collected almost two million bread bags.
“We are so proud that our children managed to work together so well and won this challenge.
“To be one of the schools receiving a container library means they’ve learned a valuable lesson in collaboration and with this library we hope to continue that spirit of togetherness and these valuable life lessons,” notes principal Khomisani Mashaba.
