"Helping Hand Award"

A few weeks ago I was invited to breakfast at Maropa Casino by the National Council for Persons with Disabilities, South Africa. The breakfast was held in order to thank all who put extra effort into selling Casual Day Stickers last year.
I really was not all that enthusiastic about going, especially as it was during working hours and, after all, I had attended the same breakfast the previous year! However, APD refused to take "no" for an answer and even phoned my employer to ask permission for me to attend the breakfast!!!
Well, much to my surprise, I received a "Helping Hand" award on behalf of Northern Academy! Between all staff and children we managed to sell 3481 stickers in 2009. That is R34 810.00, which we managed to raise for disabled people in need.

WELL DONE NORTHERN ACADEMY!!
