FirstRand Volunteers involved in Nelson Mandela Day 2011

On Monday morning, 18th July the learners at the Tsakane Primary School in Brakpan received a library of their own at a formal opening ceremony, so that they too can experience the same joy of reading as Madiba has. This container library was handed over to the principal, educators and learners of the school by the Department of Education, the Nelson Mandela Foundation and volunteer employees from First National Bank (FNB). The volunteers spent the day decorating the container library with murals which depict the ethos of The Tsakana Primary School.
