Hermanus’s own Shining Star needs YOU

Writer: Elaine Davie.

All kinds of disparaging remarks are constantly being aimed at the youth of this country. On the contrary, my interviews with young people across the Overstrand have left me deeply inspired by their level of talent, energy, creativity and commitment, as well as their determination to give something back to their own communities and the country as a whole. In their hands, South Africa cannot fail to prosper.

A shining example is Inga Mfundisi, a Grade 12 learner and Prefect at Hermanus High School. Without in any way neglecting her school work, as confirmed by the above-average results she achieves, she has committed herself to a mind-boggling array of extra-mural activities. She confesses to being very disciplined about how she divides up her time.

Inga is extremely proud of her school, Hermanus High, which has supported her in all her projects.
