Harrismith Primary celebrates 25 years of visiting HESC

The Grade 6 learners and teachers of Harrismith Primary School officially been visiting HESC on their annual school tour for 25 years, this year.
We were so humbled by a Letter and a Certificate from their school highlighting the reasons why they have continued to visit us year on year. These were received just ahead of their annual visit, which happened today.

“The reasons for us visiting you year after year is more than just the friendly staff and reception we get every year, but the experiences our learners and staff get from the tour can simply not be put into words.” – says Mr PPJ Steyn, Tour Organiser.
Mr Steyn also added,
“During the past 25 years we have learned :

  • About Rhino poaching and the effect it has.
  • The purpose of snakes in the environment.
  • The experience to come into contact with wild life and caring for the environment.
  • The value of vultures, haws and eagles within nature.
  • The history of rivers and mountains and the stories each has to offer.
  • The respect for others, the environment and the property of others.
  • The etiquette taught when dining in restaurants.
  • The neatness of places we go and applying it.
  • To enjoy yourself to the fullest while having self-respect and appreciating everything around you.

We can say without a doubt that the biggest reason for visiting you for the past 25 years is the warm welcome we receive and the manner in which we are treated during our stay. We hope to build the relationship we have with your organization for another 25 years and more to come.”
