SERVICE 2007: WHAT CAN I DO?

Service at Wynberg Boys’ High School is an integral pillar of the school, it is also a very ‘mature’ pillar of the school as one participates in academics, sport and/or culture for their own gain, while service focuses solely on others and your ability to put them before yourself, this mere fact indicates that anyone who takes part in service is a mature member of the Wynberg society.

Wynberg participates in two areas of service, the first being school service whereby one gives up time to better the school environment in whatever way he is able to, the second is that of community service whereby Wynberg Men go out into the community and assist various organizations such as Habitat for Humanity. For further information on the above topics please see the respective links.

To mention a few of the current and ongoing projects that we are currently participating:

  • Habitat for Humanity – this is a program that sees groups of boys going out (in grades/tutor groups/houses) to disadvantaged communities and building quality housing for disadvantaged families in the community. The Grade 8’s take part every year in this program and it always proves to be a day filled with fun, fellowship and teamwork. Ultimately this hard work pays off and one feels a great sense of accomplishment.
  • One on One – this event is held every year at the Good Hope Centre and aims to create a fun filled day for handicapped children. For the past few years Wynberg has run the face-painting stall, and every year it has been met with great success.
