Three Camps Bay High School Matric learners, Cathrine Madzatunya, Alev Guven and Rulida Louw, spent the first day of their school holiday volunteering at UCT’s Jagger Library where they assisted with the salvaging efforts following last Sunday’s devastating fire.
The learners helped with retrieving archival collections from the basement of the Jagger Library and then packaged those collections. There is a level of urgency involved as the basement was ankle deep in water and 4 500 crates of archival records need to be retrieved and conserved.
Cathrine, Alev and Rulida will be back again tomorrow to help with the salvaging operations.
