Over 240 volunteers from all over the world traveled about 18 000 km to assist Ukhanyo Primary School,  which is located in Masiphumelele.


In the past week, volunteers from Mellon Educate built seven new classrooms and refurbished eight classrooms.


This will help the 1 624 pupils who attend the school.

Spokesperson for Western Cape MEC of Education Jessica Shelver explained that the MERP team has already been working at Oranjekloof Primary in Imizamo Yethu for the last two years and the school has recently won an award which recognizes substantial improvement in mathematics.

In addition, the volunteers would have constructed a new playground for the primary school learners to enjoy Shelver conluded.
