DOUGLASDALE – Officers from the Douglasdale Police Station visited three Joburg north schools on 21 January as part of an ongoing SAPS school-safety programme


On 21 January officers from the Douglasdale Police Station started the year with safety in mind.

“The Douglasdale police visited three schools: The British International Preparatory School, Vuleka Primary School and Northriding Secondary School,” explained Captain Mpho Tshetlhane, spokesperson for the station. “[This was] part of an ongoing South African Police Service school safety programme for 2019.”
