Mothers from the Methodist church in Soshanguve Block L donated food and school uniform to the needy learners at Metsing Primary School. They sang songs of joy and put smile on the faces of the little ones.

 The teachers were very pleased and delighted by what the women from the church did. The women also encouraged the community to help the needy children in any way they can.

A grade 6 learner, Lerato Masha, said “I am happy for receiving the shoes from the church mothers. I wish that God can bless them with many more years in life”          

Senior teacher Mavis Thuputlela, said that they have many pupil who do not have school uniform. “My feeling, I was very touched because every day we encounter this problem. The problem with underprivileged children who do not get help from outside, usually perform badly,” said Thuputlela.

Gladys Malaka, Director General of the Methodist Church said “Today’s event went remarkably well. We are happy because the kids are happy as well. We would also like to urge the community to help the children who are in need of uniform and food.”

It was tears of joy to teachers of Metsing primary school as they witnessed the good work done by the Methodist mothers.

The Principal of the school was also pleased and he wished that God can bless the Methodist Church women to continue doing what they do best, by helping the needy. He also added that the women can go on and help other children from other schools.
