We were pleased to have the MEC, Mr Donald Grant, join us for the official opening of the St. Agnes library last week. The partnership created between Shine, Equal Education, local donors, the school and staff, and our volunteers and parents was the stuff of dreams! This was truly a 'Lead South Africa' moment, and a project of which we feel very proud to be a part. The collaboration of all factions involved proves that great things can happen with a measure of determination, doggedness and perseverance!
A massive 'shout out' to Cosmas and Themba and all the volunteers at Equal Education who helped make this all possible.
We are lucky enough to have some wonderful parents at St. Agnes who are willing to help volunteer at the library. A training session with Jeff Jones, resident librarian at the Observatory Junior School library, is planned and the date will be revealed via Shine's facebook page.
