Education Is Sexy




This is a sight, that you will see all over Mdantsane when driving through the streets of the township around one or two o' clock just after the schools have finished.
Confident young people walking home from school.


We stopped and and chatted to some of them and guess what we found! 
Education is sexy!
There you go!


One of the many voices of the new South Africa said education is sexy. Educated people are sexy. Of course this is not the only voice of South Africa. But it is a very important one. And it is one that must be heard.
The Department of Education with the latest school book delivery dilemma has apparently not yet heard the voice of many of South Africa's young people who are still forced to learn and study under difficult circumstances - with some of them not having received their school books six months after the schools have started.
