Christel House South Africa (CHSA) celebrated the end of term with an energetic assembly for over 200 guests including supporters, partners, students and some very special guests – CHSA graduates who have returned to form a mentorship program with grade 12 CHSA learners. Xolisa W., a recent Bachelor of Commerce graduate made the announcement. “As graduates of this amazing school, we felt we needed to do something to contribute to the Christel House circle of life. This mentorship program is our way of giving back.” Wulana shared his story of joining Christel House with the crowd. “I walked through the gates of Christel House in 2002 as a shy seven-year-old boy. Coming from a township like Langa, where a child is more likely to do drugs and go to prison than to school, Christel House saved me and gave me the best possible education. Everything I am today is thanks to the values Christel House has taught me.”
