“Learners were also made aware of food safety, which includes food that is provided to learners,” Moganedi also said.
Knowledge about the Adopt-a-Cop programme was explained while parents were encouraged to be supportive of the school system.
“Parents’ support contributes to learners having a better chance to achieve their goals without unnecessary challenges.
“Learners overall responded positively to the police programme and promised to value education by refraining from all criminal activities that might affect their education,” Moganedi concluded.
