With spring in the air and in people\u2019s hearts the team from the GCN were thrilled to visit the Greater Germiston Society for Child and Family Welfare, on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

As part of the GCN\u2019s community project, called \u201cCity News Caring for the Community\u201d we set out to bring some colour and life to the gardens at Child Welfare\u2019s offices.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

The society aids many vulnerable children and families in the greater Germiston area and by helping to plant a garden the team hoped that the gesture would show the society that it is appreciated in the community.<\/p>\n

A tree and lots of flowers were generously donated to Barbara Bouwer, the director of Germiston Child Welfare, by Majestic Nursery.<\/p>

The nursery also sent Michael Rammutla along to assist us with the planting and show us exactly what to do with his vast expertise in planting and caring for plants.<\/p>\n
