Comrades Appreciation – On Friday, 27 October, Mrs Debbie Straw visited St Charles College to hand over a certificate of appreciation to Mr van Blerk and the boys who volunteered as stretcher bearers during
the Ultimate Human Race.
Forty-five boys received and staff received Comrades Appreciation for spent the day at the finish line of the 2023 Comrades Marathon at Kingsmead Stadium, carrying the battle-weary runners to the medical tent.
St Charles College is proud to play a small part of this iconic annual event and we look forward to more boys volunteering for the 2024 version which will finish next to St Charles College.
Well done to the Blue & Gold! – Mr Rowan Irons (Director of Sport)
One of our senior leaders succinctly summarized the value of service: “It was good to be able to help those who needed help. The physical exertion was outweighed by the emotional fulfilment of helping others.” – Nathan Raubenheimer.
