Today Nicole, Deborah, Tricia, Nondy and Nobontu visitied Reddam High School and were guests at the Grade 11 assembly. The assembly was very entertaining with live performances from fire dancers, singing and yo-yo tricksters. We were able to speak to the school about E-waste as Reddam is one of the schools that has an E-waste bin sponsorsed by Acer and Miss Earth SA. We were given the opportunity to tell learners of the importance of propoer E-waste recycling -  the learners were very receptive and eager to get started!

After the assembly we ‘visited’ their E-waste bin and were very excited to see that already some e-waste had gathered in the bin! We left Reddam confident that the learners had learnt alot about E-waste and the bin will definately be used!

Us earthlings had a great time at Garden World today, exploring all the garden displays! It was wonderful sunny weather and we loved planting a Fever Tree, the tree of the year. On the way out I decided to buy myself an orange tree to add to my fruit tree collection at home :)
 
Thank you to everyone at Garden World for your warm hospitality and to Louis for showing us around!

Dear Catherine, Ella and Georgina

The night before my birthday I went to bed with a BIG smile on my face, thinking about the year that past. This year has been the best ever and it’s all thanks to you! Being a Miss Earth SA Finalist is such a Honour. Thanks for creating this platform for us, all the opportunities you gave us, all the knowledge you have shared and all the small things you do for us. It truly made this year UNFORGETTABLE!! There are no words to say how grateful I am for this one in a lifetime experience! If the year to come is half as amazing it will still be extraordinary!!

You are a great team and a big inspiration to me!

I thank you from the bottom of my heart for making all my dreams come true this year.

Tree of hope and joy!!

For Arbor Month I planted 10 trees in Pretoria, And named them Trees of hope and joy!

I planted trees at House Judea in Wolmer, they run a program for underprivileged kids in Wolmer, and they have recently started with a outreach program for underprivileged kids in townships.

I donated 5 trees for Ntsha-Peu primary school. Unfortunately I couldn’t plant the trees with them at the school because of the strikes there is no kids at school, but I will defiantly visit the school in the future to plant even more trees. Ntsha-Peu Primary school is also on of the finalists in the Food and trees for Africa competition, they are going green, recycling, Veggie gardens and more.

Thank you MESA For sponsoring the lovely trees!! They bring so much joy!

The Lions Club made a promise to every year plant trees on Arbor day, this is their 2nd year, and it is a privilege to have been a part of this wonderful day!

Thank you to everyone who is making South Africa GrEEn!! For the rest of you, join in the green fun and plant a tree this month, it’s Arbor month!!! :)

Morning MESA :)

On 29th August I was invited to an International festival that was held at St Johns apostle Catholic Church in Roodepoort. I was invited by YES RECYCLING who do fantastic work with schools and companies by providing recycle bins. We talked to people about recycling and the importance of it. For me, its important to teach children how important it is to throw things away and in the right bin J I was lucky enough to judge the “Technicolor dream coat” competition and we discussed that next year, the children create clothing / coats from recycled items!
