The highlight of the day was the Bell helicopter landing on the school grounds with the HODs and ‘Captain Kindness’, Prof Reddy, disembarking.
Representatives from Richards Bay Family Care and the SPCA were present to receive the toys, shoes, clothing and books.
‘If today’s event has changed but one heart; then we have made a difference. The seeds thrown out will surely take root, growing into gigantic trees bearing the fruit of kindness,’ said Prof Reddy.
‘As Amelia Earhart, said, ‘A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions, and the roots spring up and make new trees. The greatest work that kindness does to others is that it makes them kind themselves’.
