IT is said charity begins at home – Pinetown Boys’ High School Interact Club gave back to the senior citizens and less fortunate people of Pinetown on Mandela Day.
The boys started their day at The Highway Aged filled with the spirit of Madiba. They entertained the elderly with a heart felt praise poem to start the programme, which was followed by an aerobics session.
“The much-loved session rejuvenated their youth and of course the day could not end without a sweet ending as we treated them to some eats and treats to satisfy their sweet tooth with a cup of tea,” said PBHS learner, Sitholile Sithole.

“We would also like to extend our gratitude to Praveena Chetty, our acting deputy principal in charge of Pinetown Boys’ High School Interact Club for making this possible,” said Sitholile.
Moodley thanked the boys for having generous hearts and planning this honourable event.
