Hero awards empower learners
The Pick n Pay School Club introduced the 'Inspired by Heroes' theme in 2010 to motivate young learners to go above and beyond, reach out into their communities with a selfless approach to making a difference and own their futures. The awards reward and acknowledge everyday heroes within the following disciplines; leadership, overcoming adversity, academic excellence, sport and community upliftment.
The Club ran an event at the Leicester Road Primary School on 20 April 2011, where Lyndon Ferns, South African Olympic gold medal swimmer encouraged all present to not only be inspired by their heroes but believe in their own abilities to create and mould their community and their future.
Hosted by Zizo Beda, ex Miss Teen South Africa and TV star, guests and media enjoyed the opportunity of experiencing a School Club in action during a classroom session at the school. The experience was completed by a school assembly and show which was put on by the learners of the school.
