As part of our commitment to the schools we have partnered with, we asked the Principles how they’d like us to bless their teachers and staff that have worked so hard all year. Inkwenkwezi Secondary School, Du Noon wished to go to the Spur for a big Christmas lunch. So on the 28th November 2014 we treated 48 teachers & staff to Golden Spur Big Bay for a Christmas lunch where they had a wonderful social and connection time together. Wow, this also marks the Recycle Swop Shop in Du Noon in its 4th year of operation!! Thank you to Take Heart for sponsoring the lunch.

This project is made possible by our sponsors, partners and stakeholders and so a huge “Thank You!” to Cape Town International Airport, Africa Flooorcare and Elkanah Recycling Committee for their commitment, sponsorship and support . Of course, to our wonderful participants and volunteers from Du Noon.🙂 Thank you to the surrounding community, local businesses, Life Changers Church, Parklands College, SALT & Community Chest for their donations and support. We think the below email from the Principle, Mr Kutu, sums it all up.

“Dear Recycle Swop Shop
This year 2014, has been a school year with its highlights and we can confirm that you have made it possible for each stride we have taken to make it become a success.
We really appreciate the contribution you have made to our school and the community through the recycling project. Pass our word of gratitude to the team that works with you at the school and the dedication they have shown in keeping the school and community vibrant. Furthermore, we have ended the year with a high note, the staff could not stop talking about the marvelous lunch you have provided for us in Spur restaurant.
We also appreciate your commitment to further assist us next year in the venture of motivating our learners to pull up their socks and academically do better by awarding those who make improvement though they may not be top learners and also those who become the top learners. We shall provide you with more details at the beginning of 2015 in order for you to plan.
Inkwenkwezi Secondary School staff, learners and parents are overwhelmed by your partnership with us in breaking the cycle of poverty in the community. May God richly bless you.
We wish you, your team and your family merry Christmas and a prosperous 2015. “Enkosi kakhulu”.
Kindest regards
TR Kutu”
