WHITE RIVER – About 30 learners attended the extra classes that were presented by former Rob Ferreira learner, Similo Siyenga, at his alma mater last week.
Siyenga matriculated last year and is currently a student of civil engineering at the University of Pretoria.
Growing up in Matsulu, Siyenga realised that if it had not been for the extra classes he had attended, he would have not been able to achieve the marks to go to university, and decided he wanted to give back by providing extra classes like the ones he had been given.

“Last week was amazing. I enjoyed it and I am sure that the kids enjoyed
it as well.”Five other volunteers teamed up with Siyenga to teach maths, physics, English and life sciences.
Even though the majority of the learners who attended were in grade 12, other grades reached out for help as well and Siyenga was delighted. Siyenga said classes will continue this week.
