Learners and NGOs benefit from Mondi investment

This year’s Mondi Schools Challenge saw 4000 entries – including children, adults and even babies in strollers – completing the 5km scenic route around Richards Bay’s Bay Hall coastal area.

It took place on Sunday 14 July 2019.

Local schools are encouraged to enter all their learners, with big cash prizes up for grabs for the schools with the most participants.
