equipment, as the schools re-opened, following a short interval in teaching. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is at a time that the country is bracing itself for an accelerated increase in Covid-19 cases, which highlights the need for schools to be sanitised adequately. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of Aries Solar Powers\u2019 support of local schools, the solar plant has provided the funding and support, to both the Kenhardt High School and the Kenhardt Primary School.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The programme incorporated training for six staff members from the two schools, as well as personal protection equipment (PPE) that includes goggles, gumboots, nitrile gloves and hazmat suits, to help keep staff safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe believe that the equipment and training is essential for our local schools as they will need to be disinfected and sanitised frequently, to reduce the risk of infection,\u201d said Economic Development Practitioner for Aries Solar Power Tsholofelo Moote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sanitising equipment included cordless spray guns, including battery and charger packs; PPE packs and disinfectant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier this year, the solar farm donated over 600 masks to the schools, an allocation of three masks for each learner, in addition to an extensive supply of sanitisers and hygiene products. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kenhardt High School Principal, Deon Keffers expressed relief for the assistance as many learners, staff and parents, were apprehensive about the return to school. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSome parents were afraid of sending their children to school but now I can show them that we can help keep their children and educators safe.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Kenhardt High School and Kenhardt Primary School cleaning staff

It has a long-standing history of serving the community with news and information pertinent to the region. The newspaper, distributed in the capital and more than 20 towns, is also read online in other parts of the vast province, and has been an important source of information for residents of the Northern Cape. The publication is geared towards Afrikaans and English-speaking readers, with the content reflecting the cultural diversity of the province. Like the other regional newspapers in South Africa, NoordkaapBulletin has had to adapt to changing media landscapes, including the rise of digital news platforms. However, it remains a significant part of the media landscape in the Northern Cape, helping to keep communities informed and connected.","email":"noordkaapbulletin@novusmedia.co.za","telephone":"+27514047600","legalName":"Novus Media (Pty)
