Brenthurst pupils open their hearts for former headboy
Funds raised for past pupil who was seriously injured in an accident.
Brenthurst Primary School held a fund-raiser for a former pupil on Friday, last week.
Funds were raised through a Civvies Day and a cake sale, with all monies going to Jeshan Peramaul (14), who was the school’s headboy in 2014.
Jeshan, who lives in Brakpan Central, suffered a severe brain injury when he was struck by a car in Benoni, in August, last year.
The accident has left him in a wheelchair and he requires full-time care.
Jeshan’s mom, Keshnie Peramaul, praised the school and told the Herald that the fund-raiser was a remarkable gesture.
“It’s amazing, we’ve had such support,” she said.
“Brenthurst Primary is very special to us, it always has been.”
The fund-raiser kicked off with a religious service conducted by the Warriors of Christ ministry.
