The Green, The Greener, The Greenest
A Journey to COP 17
![securedownload[1]](http://www.oakhill.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/securedownload1-150x150.jpg "Permalink to Thank you, Oakhill Prep!")
We would like to send a special thank you to all of these pupils from Oakhill school for their generous donations of both food and money to the men (and a few women) who wait for work in the parking lot near Loerie Park for work.
Rondevlei Primary had every reason to celebrate on Friday 2nd December. In the low-lying sandy soils of Rondevlei, stands a 3 classroom primary school. Here 72 primary learners spend their school days; ably taught by the Principal, Mrs Saayman and Mr Swartz. With the help of Oakhill School and many caring community workers, this school is helped with donations of books, food, furniture, clothes, playground equipment and many essential items.
During the July 2011 school holidays, the Wittedrift School Hostel came alive with the arrival of the Percy Mdala High School matric learners.
Funds from the Oakhill MySchool Card program have been used to purchase two full team kits for use by our local development sports teams.
As part of their President’s Award community service, 5 Grade 9′s at Oakhill, Cara Eyre, Sean Brodie, Nicole Bayes, Finn Stevenson and Claudia Spilsbury, wrote a letter to the Prep School families a few weeks ago requesting a collection of childrens’ clothing and shoes. Talk about generosity! They sorted and packed bags and boxes – a car load full and today was the day for sharing and caring.
For the last few years Oakhill has enjoyed sponsoring children from schools in the community to attend the Hospice Ballet dress rehearsal in the NG Church hall.
