Laerskool Impala celebrated Women’s Day with a special morning of laughter, reflection and inspiration on August 7, with presenter and speaker Hannes van Wyk as the guest speaker.

“The event beautifully reflected the truth of Proverbs 31:25: ‘Strength and honour is her clothing, and she laughs at the day that is coming.’ Furthermore, Proverbs 31:30 reminds us: ‘Charm is deceitful, and beauty is fleeting, but a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised.’ These timeless words aptly summed up the message of the morning – that true beauty is found in character, faith, courage and love,” Le Roux said.
Le Roux thanked everyone who contributed to making the Women’s Day celebration possible.
She said she hoped every woman who attended left feeling valued and reminded of her unique purpose.
