Children Learn Under the Trees

Pupils from Nelson Ramodike High School still learn under trees despite the government’s promise to six years ago to eradicate tree, mud and shack classrooms in the Limpopo Province.

The school has a total enrolment of 765 pupils, but during rainy days, almost half of them do not report for school.

Situated in thick bushes at the foot of a mountain outside Lenyenye in Tzaneen, the school has only 15 classrooms, making teaching and learning impossible due to extreme overcrowding.
