It is a value we encourage in our learners.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project had four main focus areas \u2013 painting the jungle gym, installing a new sandpit, creating a fairy garden and painting a hop-scotch grid for the children of the cr\u00e8che.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We would like to thank TimBuild Somerset West as well as Sand and Stone for their generous contributions in making this project possible,&#8221; the statement read. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Lastly, but by no means least, thank you to the wonderful parents and learners of Helderberg High School who donated food and joined in in this project.
