Rhino Day

Rhino Day 

On Friday, 19 September, our school came together for Rhino Conservation Day, transforming into a sea of red and black for a great cause.

Our assembly was led by our passionate future conservationists, displaying a powerful performance with a strong message. One standout skit from the Std 7 boys painted a future without rhinos, urging action to prevent it starting today. Through moving monologues and poems, students conveyed the urgency of conservation, highlighting the plight of the remaining 10 rhinos at Mokolodi Game Reserve. The funds raised on Rhino Day will help with ear tracking devices and other efforts to protect these animals.

Further to this, Amayah (1D) completed her creative writing on our Rhino Awareness Day theme and this is her work:

On Friday we had rhino day. We sent money to Mokolodi so we can help them to protect rhinos from poachers who poach them for their horns for medicine. There are two kinds of rhinos in Africa. The first one is white and the second one is black. The rhinos have different mouth shapes. The white one has a square mouth and the black one has a pointed mouth. They like to roll in mud so it protects their skin. The white rhino eats grass and the black one eats leaves. The rhinos have bad eyesight and they can charge. Save the rhinos!
