The Vuleka School in North Riding celebrated 25 years of success by hosting a fun day on 25 October.
Managing director Melanie Sharland commented, ”We are celebrating the skills of our gifted children by having a church service and a day full of lots of fun.”
There were many stalls with products, all donated. Different stations were set up to entertain the children such as a nail pamper bar, face painting, water slides and a jewellery-making station. The proceeds of the event went to the Support-a-Child project.
They had great success by raising a whooping R2 400 per child,”
The Vuleka School as a whole educated over 1 000 children with three primary schools, three learning centres and a centre for assisted learning.
One in five children at Vuleka are either orphans or a vulnerable child (OVC). By having initiatives among many for instance, Support-a-Child they have been able to ensure that high quality education remains as cost effective as possible.
