Across ADvTECH schools, Mandela Day was brought to life by the smallest hands and the biggest hearts.

At Pecanwood College, pre-primary learners celebrated the legacy of Madiba by planting Karee trees along their very own “Madiba Lane.” With bright smiles and tiny trowels, these budding eco-champions learned about the importance of trees for people and planet, while sowing seeds of environmental responsibility from an early age.

Meanwhile, learners at Pinnacle College Kyalami collected socks, scarves, beanies, jackets, and warm clothes, over 113 pairs of socks alone, for children in need. Their donation drive was a powerful reminder that compassion knows no age limit.

And at Trinityhouse Randpark Ridge, the Grade 00 and 000 learners rolled up their sleeves and baked delicious muffins, lovingly paired with bread and spreads. These thoughtful snack packs were donated to 260 learners at Kingsway Christian School, bringing both nourishment and joy.

From planting hope in the soil to warming hearts with every kind gesture, these young learners embodied the spirit of Mandela Day: making every action count for something greater.

Because even the smallest hands can make a world of difference.
