It is going to be a good start for the children of Hawk Academy in Primrose when they arrive at school next year to find they have brand new stationery.<\/p>\n
The generous R20 000 donation of stationery, as well as teachers\u2019 desks and reading books for young children, was handed over to the school by Dynamic Plastics on Thursday.<\/p>
Yvonne McKenna, a sales consultant at the Malvern East-based company, told the GCN that every year the company gives sponsorship to a needy school or organisation.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe were told about the school by Ward 36 councillor Wendy Morgan and decided to offer assistance,\u201d Yvonne said.<\/p>
\u201cThe school is in need of a lot of help, and we challenge other companies to fulfill a wish on the school\u2019s wish list.\u201d<\/p>\n
Dynamic Plastics has also organised with Palesa Pads to come and educate the older girls next year.<\/p>\n
Hawk Academy will be catering to children from Grade R to Grade Eight in 2018.<\/p>\n
Principal Agnes Mkhonto was thrilled with the donation.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe can start teaching and learning from day one as we will have all the equipment,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe thank Dynamic Plastics as this will make our work easier next year.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe really appreciate the donation.\u201d<\/p>\n
The school is situated at 12 Main Reef Road and can be contacted on 011 043 9895 or 079 430 8400 or by emailing hawkacademygp@gmail.com.<\/p>\n
