This past Wednesday, the Social Crime Unit at Langlaagte Police Station visited three different schools in the area.
The visit was to give math sets to Grade Six and Seven pupils as part of social development from Langlaagte Police.
Constable Phumi Kraai said, “This project is to create a relationship between pupils and the police and let them know that we are their friends.
“This is also to let the pupils know that they can trust and come talk to the police about anything.”
The importance of maths in the education system has been on the list of priority to the Department of Education.
The school was delighted to receive these maths set and believes that the relationship between the police and school needs to be maintained.
“The school is very proud of the relationship we have with Langlaagte Police Station and this relationship bears fruit for our pupils.
“Maths is a very important subject, this is where it starts in primary school.
“I would like to thank everyone to help with this sponsorship,” said Marcel Elephant the principal of Riverlea Primary school, one of the three schools they visited that day.
