In light of the Easter festivities, the Germiston SPCA organised a special Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, for a day filled with community interaction and efforts to raise much-needed funds.<\/p>\n

The hunt was well supported and although the rainfall had imperfect timing, it was not enough to keep the children and their parents from flocking in.<\/p>

\u201cWe want the community to know that the SPCA is open to them and we need involvement from them as we wouldn\u2019t be able to run this place without them,\u201d said Lesley Ritky, one of the SPCA committee members.<\/p>\n

Through their outreach programme, five girls from Assumption Convent School – Nina Pantovic, Zoe Jack, Angeline Radford, Emily Gers and Yakira Tshipamba – joined the SPCA in ensuring that participants of the hunt understood the rules and had a guide to help with the hunt as well as involvement from Pitter Patter Academy.<\/p>
