Learners at Mindpro Academy in Atlasville ditched their books, opting to spend July 19 on the streets.
The group of 14 students partnered with Kuselo Child Care Agency delivering hearty soup, treats and teddies to children and adults across the city.
Starting in Sky Street, Boksburg North, teachers of the school promptly tasked learners with various duties.
“Our school is built on a heart and care for others,” said principal Madelein Venter.
“Partnering with Kuselo allowed us to not only extend a loving hand to members of our community, but offered our learners the opportunity to serve others.
“Whether it was a heartfelt smile, a courteous greeting or giving a teddy to a child, the learners felt, if only for a moment, they impacted the life of another.”
Under the guidance of Amanda Coetzee, founder of Kuselo the youths further visited Villa Liza and Madeley Road in Jansen Park to spread joy.
Tasked with handing out teddies are Elrine Grobler (9), Somai Venter (12), Sasha Fourie (12), Jessica Mccabe (14) and Hayley Kramm (12).
