No bag, no problem for Bluff Christian Academy learners
FROM a baby stroller to a shoe box, to a box of cereal, Bluff Christian Academy learners ditched their normal school bags and took on the challenge of 'bring a different bag day' on August 1.

The day challenged learners to come to school with their textbooks and stationery in anything other than a school bag. The out-of-the-box initiative was aimed at raising funds for the matric farewell.
Ntozinhle Nkomo, the school's events co-ordinator and marketing manager, said the fundraiser allowed the learners to showcase their creativity while helping the school raise the much-needed funds.
'Our goal is to make this farewell a truly memorable occasion. From shopping totes to sports duffels and everything in between, it was such great fun. We are excited to see how learners get involved and support their matrics in a fun, meaningful way,' said Nkomo.
She extended her thanks to parents and guardians of Bluff Christian Academy who contributed and helped make the fundraiser a success.
'We appreciate our school community for buying into the spirit of this initiative,' said Nkomo.
