Pupils from schools around Edenvale plan to close off Baker Road on August 8.
They will use this time to stand up against drug abuse, domestic violence, bullying in schools and human trafficking.
This year’s Tiles4Change march plans to be bigger than last year’s event.
Several events have been planned to entertain the pupils, before, during and after their walk from Horwood’s Farm to the Karaglen Shopping Centre.
At the centre, school pupils will be introduced to the latest edition to Tiles4Chage, a school passport which will help children track their achievements throughout the year.
This campaign aims to have school pupils turn their bad habits to good ones through various initiatives.
The passports will be customised for each school and will include charity work, sports activities and school achievements.
In October last year, over 800 school pupils marched to the Karaglen Shopping Centre with various community role-players, including the Edenvale SAPS, the NEWS and management from the Karaglen Shopping Centre.
At the march, children stood up and let their voices be heard against the abuse of drugs in schools and the community at large.
Tiles4Change was started to give children in the Edenvale community a platform from which they could stand up against issued affecting them.
To date, over R150 000 has been raised through Tiles4Change.
These funds will be ploughed back into the schools through various anti-drug and social crime prevention strategies.
On August 8, children will leave Horwood’s Farm at around 10am and march to the Karaglen Shopping Centre.
After the planned activities, children will then march back to Horwood’s Farm.
