“We encourage learners to have self-discipline,” Sgt Styles Maome, communications officer for the Primrose police said during the visit.
“This will help you to progress through life with ease.”
During his presentation, he also reminded learners that a child below the age of 16 cannot consent to sex and sent a stern warning to those who are allegedly bringing dagga to the school that their days were numbered and they would be caught.

“Create a better and brighter future for the community,” he said.
