Vice-chairperson Rejeanne Louw and member Belinda Weiss from Gordon’s Bay Spiritual Crime Prevention Group distribute rulers with a difference to excited Temperance Town Primary School learners.
Rulers became tools for change when Gordon’s Bay police’s Spiritual Crime Prevention Group used them to spread anti-bullying messages at two primary schools on Tuesday 11 February.
The group, alongside Khayelitsha Sub-district Community Policing Forum chairperson Marlon Solomons and deputy Donovan Brown, distributed the stationery to launch their annual anti-bullying campaign at Temperance Town and Gordon’s Bay primary schools.

Nearly 900 learners received rulers carrying messages of hope and the group’s commitment to fighting bullying at school.

Young faces lit up as the importance of tolerance was shared through this simple yet meaningful gesture.
