POLOKWANE – Legodi, who boasts the Mrs Polokwane 2020 title, teamed up with the Bible Society of South Africa to donate 118 skipping ropes, Bible workbooks and a laptop to the school.
She told BONUS that she calls the ropes “Skippy The Confidence Activator”.

“I saw that the South African Gymnastics Federation launched the Skipnation rope skipping challenge 2021, and knew that it was the right time for the learners at Ramogwana to be activated by receiving tools that afford them the opportunity to join #skipnation2021,” she said.
Legodi recommends rope skipping, and says it has many benefits besides keeping learners fit.
“I jump every single day and I know it is very beneficial. The benefits of jumping rope include burning calories, improving your coordination, creating stronger bones, lowering your risk of injury, and improving your heart health. I believe learners will also have better concentration in class as a result,” Legodi said.
She added that donations for schools ensure that everyone in the classroom is equipped with the fundamental tools to thrive.
“When one donates necessary school supplies, you relieve many families of a financial stressor that influences how prepared their children are for the curriculum,” she remarked.

Legodi thanked the Bible society for the literacy workbooks they donated to the Gr R and Gr 2 learners that now learn to read and write through Bible stories.
“We are forever grateful to do the #MinistrybeyondthePulpit, activate confidence in different areas and change mindsets,” she added.
