POLOKWANE – BOSTON City Campus and Business College in Polokwane hosted an event called, pic ink at the Polokwane swimming pool last Thursday.
During the pic ink, students enjoyed a variety of activities such as a slip and slide. There was also a DJ who entertained them throughout the afternoon.
The branch manager, Melaney Beneke, said they wanted to build a family-like relationship among the students and they felt it was important that they got to know each other while it was still early days.
“We want the students to experience a campus environment where they get to mingle with each other. We hope that this picnic feeling will help them know each other and make friends,” said Beneke.
She said building relationships would help them when they did group activities in class.
Kgodisho Rakaba training advisor, said the college would host a social event at least every month for students and the community.
He said they wanted to develop the students so they could develop others.
“The college will host charity events and we want students to take part. We want to instil the culture of giving and show them that we need each other in order to function as a community.”
He said he believed that the pic ink would help them see each other as a family.
One of the students, Duncan Langa, said he only saw his classmates in class, but never spent time with them outside campus.
He said the pic ink was a great experience as he got to know some of his classmates on a social level.
