What an empowering month it has been for the Grade 7 students at F.F. Ribeiro Primary School! The learners embarked on an insightful, enjoyable, and uplifting journey, guided by our incredible guest speakers. They were thrilled to hear from a football analyst, explored the technical field of software engineering, and ventured into the exciting world of entertainment and media.
We sincerely thank all our guest speakers for their invaluable contributions. By generously sharing your time and insights, you have opened up a world of possibilities for our learners. Embracing the belief that just one caring adult can profoundly impact a child’s future, you have truly made a difference.
We also wish to express our appreciation to Ms. Bessie, the principal of F.F. Ribeiro Primary School, and Mr. Moloto, the Grade 7 Life Orientation teacher. Thank you for ensuring this year’s programme ran smoothly and for your dedication to the well-being of your students.
Lastly, a huge thank you to our enthusiastic students! Your willingness to engage and learn from our speakers, along with your eager questions, made this experience truly remarkable.
