This idea is one that was put forward after the Mayor asked could be done for Do It Day.
The objective is to get as many children as possible to clean up the town and fill black bags. The bags are donated by the municipality. Each school will clean up in their area and then count the bags they fill. John and Stephen Langlands from sanitation and cleanliness at the municipality will arrange collection of the bags and officiate the count. We will then cover the event in the press in the following week and announce how many bags were collected and ask the public and the businesses to sponsor a bag for R10. We have Oakhill School, Knysna High School, Hornlee School, the Christian School all getting geared up to help CLEAN UP Knysna! The idea is that business/individuals sponsor each bag collected by the children and all the proceeds go to the children in our locality that cannot afford school fees or lunches! We are also arranging that food is delivered to the Chris Nissan School on Friday morning to ensure that the children are fed before they set off to collect rubbish and clean up! Any help is most welcome at this stage.
COME ON LETS GET OUR CHILDREN EDUCATED!!!
FROM 9 – 11AM on FRIDAY 19th at the KNYSNA PRIMARY SCHOOL FIELDS
