On Friday 17 February 2012, we introduced an alternative to the 2 hours a learner has to sit detention for certain transgressions. We gave them a choice as to do 1 hour of adding value to the school by improving the areas that are high in maintenance. We discovered a definite change in a few learners that started to clean up the Ecco Garden situated in an encloused court yard.

Even when these 4 learners saw me taking photos of the maintenance work at the roof and windows, they were ever so keen to pose for a photo. (Perhaps the few minutes under the shade of a big guava tree was the key to the enthusiasm.) Thank you guys, you did a good job, with a lot of smiles!
