The end of the school year started on a tragic note in the Western Cape when two children, aged nine and 14, were killed in a road accident near Ceres.
Nine others pupils from the Petra Gedenk Primary School were seriously injured when a bakkie, on which a farmer was transporting the children to school, collided with a tractor on the Wolseley Road. Both drivers also suffered injuries.
Most of the patients have been rushed to the Worcester Hospital.
Meanwhile the historic Robben Island Primary School is shutting its doors permanently today.
It has been in existence for 165-years. Only a few pupils still attended the school this year. But Irene Huysamen of the Green Wall of Africa Network says it had not been given a fair chance to market itself.
