A group of Union Grade 5’s have exceeded expectations with a special project they initiated this year, in which they committed to raise funds in aid of the Graaff-Reinet SPCA.
Through various fundraising endeavors, they managed to collect quite a hefty sum and, during a visit to the local Pick n Pay store last week, they used the money to purchase trolley loads of pet food and other items needed by the SPCA.
We are very impressed with the learners’ efforts and enthusiasm in this regard and hope that this encourages other youngsters to follow in their footsteps in lending a helping hand in their communities.
The donation was gifted to the SPCA on Wednesday, 16 October.
