Amazizi Private-Public Partnership
Amazizi Secondary School benefits through Private-Public Partnership with Alpine Heath…
T Today, Alpine Heath Resort in partnership with the Okhahlamba Local Municipality handed over 55 bunk beds for 110 young female learners that board at the Amazizi Secondary School. Prior to this generous contribution, these students slept on thin sponge mattresses placed on the floor, a condition that was far from conducive to their academic pursuits and overall well-being.
This initiative is just the first phase of a more comprehensive community project, which will culminate in the establishment of ablution facilities on-site before the 2024 school year commences. These facilities will ensure a hygienic and comfortable living environment for our learners, further empowering them to focus on their studies and chase their dreams.
In her address at the handover, Deputy Mayor, Cllr. N.E Tshabalala stated that “Creating enabling environments for academic excellence is fundamental to shaping the future of our youth. Quality education is the bedrock upon which the aspirations of our young learners’ rest. Projects like this one provide the necessary foundation for these learners to thrive academically.”
The importance of forging and maintaining public-private partnerships cannot be overstated and the municipality is committed to building and strengthening these relationships. These partnerships foster synergy between different sectors, amplifying our collective capacity to bring about positive change.
The event was attended by management of Alpine Heath Resort, municipal officials, the school governing body, principal, teachers and the learners.
As a municipality, we would like to thank Alpine Heath for their generous contribution to the school. We value our relationship and look forward to strengthening it further, creating a lasting impact on the lives of our learners and the prosperity of our community.
