Makhubela made the preliminary introductions and directed the programme.
School principal Fana Digashu thanked the Grade R staff for the great work of teaching they did for the learners throughout the year.
“These learners, who will someday become future leaders, are the products of this school. It is through the staff and children’s hard work that today we are celebrating their achievements,” said Digashu.
