First of its kind concept


The Bela-Bela Education Advocacy is once again excited to announce that it will be hosting another exciting event this weekend, 5 June 2010, in Bela-Bela: The BBEAG 5km/10km FUN RUN/WALK.


This exciting first of its kind fundraising concept will be another vehicle for which the advocacy group, BBEAG, aims to raise funds for its bursary scheme for deserving matriculants in the Bela-Bela area. The advocacy group has set a target to raise at least R150 000 by the end of the 2010 academic year to enable at least ten (10) deserving matriculants to further their studies at tertiary institutions of their choice.


Zero percent pass rate school


Local, regional and national media are therefore invited to witness the birth of this breakthrough in a town which in the 2009 Matric Results produced one of the schools with lowest marks in the country, Raeleng Middle School, with a zero percent pass rate.
