Quotes of the day:

Sivenathi learner at Cypress Primary: I enjoyed planting trees and especially learning all the steps on how to plant a tree. I also liked the part when we played games, danced and answered questions about trees. I’m looking forward now to look after my planted trees every day during school.

Lulutho learner at Cypress Primary: I enjoyed playing games in the beginning and the teaching about trees and learning how we can plant trees ourselves. It was soo great having you here at my school. I would love to do it again.

Mr Titus Principal at Cypress Primary: Educating learners about trees and our environment is very important. We really need to encourage our students, show them the importance of trees and give them more knowledge on why we need trees. Today they experienced and learned why trees are important and now they will be able to spread the word about it. Now it’s not us, teachers anymore, who have to teach our students about trees but now also the kids themselves chat to each other about their tree-planting experience and knowledge.

Kate volunteer from Publicis Machine: What a day! Loved every second - Smiling kids, sunshine, happy trees and lots of fun! Thank you.
