Early Christmas For Tsunyane Primary

05 December 2011

Schoolchildren from Tsunyane Primary school in the small North West village of Lekgalong close to Sun City beamed with joy as the Nedbank Foundation started out their Christmas on a high note. The Foundation arrived at the school in the early hours of Wednesday morning on the 31st of November 2011 bearing gifts that are set to impact positively on the school and the children immensely for years to come.

The Nedbank Foundation donated an Edutainer, a mobile Library and a brand new soccer kit to the school. The Edutainer is one of ten that Nedbank has donated to underprivileged communities all over South Africa. It contains books, toys and other learning materials conducive to proper learning. It is made out of a shipping container and revamped into a safe, comfortable and secure classroom, a conversion done by the Bright Kid Foundation. The Mobile Library donated to the school consists of a flat screen tv and over 800 books in different languages. The schools colours, gold and brown, fill the soccer kits proudly as a Nedbank sponsor badge features on  the chest fronts of each jersey.

Over R300 000 was spent on the early Christmas gift by Nedbank, showcasing their true commitment to playing their part for an educated and healthy South Africa.
