- Barry Viljoen

Members of the Polokwane Municipali­ty, led by speaker Willeminah Modiba, visited Siloe School for the Blind outside Lebowakgom­o last Friday to present 76 pairs of shoes and sanitary towels to the learners.

According to the municipali­ty’s communicat­ions and marketing manager, Matshidiso Mothapo, the shoes were given to 37 girls and 39 boys. “This kind donation follows a request from the school’s principal to Mayor John Mpe’s office,” Mothapo explained. At the handover, Modiba said Mpe is a stern believer in education and knows that investment in education creates a better future.
