 Close-up with Grade 12 Learners: Dedicating to 67 Minutes of Mandela Day
In Finding Solutions for Africa; the
University has dedicated more than 67 minutes during Mandela Month-
offering extensive career guidance to learners across the
Province.
Not long ago the University held a successful Winter
School aimed at providing grade 12s with extra lessons that
will help to improve the quality of matric results. Critical subjects
like Mathematics; Physical Science; Life Sciences; Economics;
Business Economics; Accounting; Geography and first additional
language of English were conducted by the University’s
experienced and competent educators within the School of Education.
Learners attained more information than they have expected- educators
‘hit’ them with assessments weekly just to test their
comprehensive understating. By the end of the three-week long
programme - all who attended seemed ready to ‘face’ their
final examination.
 Immediately after hosting winter school; the University
held a massive Open Week at the Turfloop Campus’s Anglo Platinum
Multipurpose Centre, aimed at informing learners about its academic
programmes. It attracted thousands of grade 12s from Limpopo and
Mpumalanga provinces who had the privilege to receive career and study
counselling. Learners could not hide their excitement as they received
detailed information regarding courses of their choices from dedicated
Faculty’s academics, internal and external stakeholders. Each day was
concluded with a campus tour whereby learners got the opportunity to
visit some of the mostly used academic facilities such as the Library,
Computer Laboratories, Disability Unit, Lecture Halls and Zoology
museum. Majority of learners conceded for having touched the computer
for the first time. Educators applauded the University for an
exhibition well organised.
