Women’s day speaker inspires mothers and daughters

Swartklip – On Tuesday 8 August, teacher Lottie van der Westhuizen hosted a Women’s Day event at Laerskool Platina Primary for all the girls and their mothers who were able to attend the event.  

The event started with Van der Westhuizen welcoming all the ladies and reminding them of the 1956 marches.

A very special guest attended these celebrations. Precious Chabane is a motivational speaker and a blessing to anyone who listens to her.  “Women have power to influence and make positive change not only in their own lives but in society,” Precious said.

Susan Hollaway, the chairperson of the governing body, said it was a privilege to be part of this school as she herself was in Laerskool Platina Primary in 1994, and is still part of this wonderful team. Hollaway also thanked all the teachers and all the mothers for the wonderful work they do.
