Held on March 13, the initiative featured talks on life after high school, unconditional respect, discipline, and the idea that the future lies within the hands of its owner.
“We emphasised that life outside or after matric is not really as it may seem to be when looking at it from afar,” said Gomolemo.
Gomolemo noted that making it clear to learners that the decisions they take now will be what determines what happens to their lives after school years.
“I also told them that their background doesn’t determine where they should end. Where they are from has nothing to do with what the future has in store for them,” he said.
The initiative also worked as a new beginning for the Witbank SAPS junior station commander, Keamogetswe Nkosi, who recently met the requirements to secure the chair for the season.
According to Gomolemo, the main reason why he visited the school was to let learners know that they should be prepared for what comes after matric and life outside their school uniforms.
