Later that day the SANBS team made a stop at Estcourt High School, there 45 pupils attended the clinic, 32 made a blood donation and among those were seven new blood buddies. On Wednesday, October 15, the SANBS staff hosted a blood clinic at Drakensberg Secondary School, 72 scholars attended the clinic, 66 made blood donations and 15 new learners were welcomed as blood donors.
The South African National Blood Service team and Clinic Co-ordinator, Mr S Dawoonarain would like to thank both the learners and school staff for showing such great support and taking initiative towards the worthy cause of saving lives. They would like to wish all learners best of luck for the 2014 end-of-year examination as well as a happy and blissful Diwali to the Hindu community.
