What better way to herald in the spring than by getting active?<\/p>\n
And to this end, the School of Achievement has just the event for you.<\/p>
The school is hosting a special 4km Spring Fun Run on September 1, from 8am.<\/p>\n
The School of Achievement is a dual-medium school with the vision to provide quality educational intervention for learners experiencing barriers to learning and development, specifically learning disabilities, within the philosophy of invitational education.<\/p>
It was the first state-run remedial school in South Africa.<\/p>\n
In order to deliver quality education, the school needs funds and the Spring Fun Run will go towards raising funds for occupational therapy equipment for the learners.<\/p>\n
Your R60 entry fee for the fun run will go directly towards the therapy equipment.<\/p>\n
