Vox pops: Learners reflect on Valentine’s Day

"I think it is very important to show everyone at school and home love on Valentine’s Day, families and friends should also buy one another gifts to remind each other of the importance of love."

On Tuesday, February 14 Discovery Primary Full-Service School celebrated Valentine’s Day in their beautifully decorated hall where a successful fundraiser was held by the learners.

The Valentine’s Day event was attended by learners and teachers who dressed up in red and white.

The Record interviewed a few Grade 7 learners in an attempt to find out how they will be celebrating the day.
