MEC Nomandla Bloem for Dept. of Transport, Safety & Liaison and HoD Rodney Pieterse joined the Deputy Minister of Education, Dr Makgabo Reginah Mhaule, and MEC Zolile Monakali for Basic Education in the Northern Cape Province for a District Development Model (DDM) outreach programme at Learamele Special School in the John Taolo Gaetsewe District, on 17 April 2024.
The day commenced with the establishment of a food garden initiative as a legacy project by the Deputy Minister as the DDM Champion. The programme was attended by various stakeholders that contributed immensely to the success of this initiative, with the Dept. Transport Safety & Liaison donating two hundred (200) Shova Kalula bicycles to eligible learners throughout the district. The Shova Kalula project is a flagship programme from DTSL which ensures that learners whose residential address are five or more kilometers away from their school of attendance are assisted effectively to get to school safely, thus ensuring that they have full access to their education.
