Kenneth Gagela, Sowaeto WaterWise Instructor says: 'The WaterWise Instructors are committed to our work in cold or sunshine. Our reward is to see the students paying attention to the water safety lesson and the challenge for us is to make the message of safety interesting. We teach the children to make a PLAN and how to avoid danger every day.'
'I have learned a lot from WaterWise and my passion is SAVING LIVES in the community that we live in at all costs. We know that the stats of drowning children is bad so we are the helping hand at no cost to the schools. We teach the children BE A HERO BE WATERWISE.'WaterWise 2kenneth waterwise2kenneth waterwise22
The community of Dube and Mofolo took a stand in building a bridge after they were unable to get authorities to help. There are students from 4 schools using the bridge each day to get to school. After building the bridge they are hoping that in this season with rainstorm children will be safe using it.bridge
