A budding young writer from Settlers won the first prize for creative writing in a competition launched by the Department of Basic Education. Kelly Mazhata (6), who attends Lord Milner Primary School, is the only learner from the Waterberg District who participated in the finals. She progressed in the competition at school, circuit and district levels before qualifying to attend the event at Bolivia Lodge in Polokwane. She is very proud of her trophy, medal, gift voucher and backpack with exciting new reading books.
