Eastern Cape MEC Fundile Gade together with officials from the Department of Basic Education (DBE) and Tiger Brands at the official handover of a newly built fully furnished kitchen at Thandulwazi Primary School in Potsdam Mdantsane.
The fully furnished kitchen worth R650,000 was donated by the DBE in collaboration with Tiger Brand Foundation.
The new school kitchen will form part of the National School Nutrition Programme (NSNP) which aims to provide learners from poor schools with one nutritious meal per day. The objective of NSNP is to serve nutritious meals to learners which will improve their ability to learn.
Gade explained that the Tiger Brands Foundation has been a formal partner with the NSNP since 2011. This partnership ensured that 75,500 learners received nutritious meals across the province.
“We would like to extend words of appreciation to them for their contribution for providing a healthy mind and a healthy body to our learners by means of healthy school nutrition and infrastructure, therefore we would like to invite other stakeholders to assist us on changing the outlook of the province” said Gade.
