Next, we were off to the Middelburg Combined School, where we were welcomed by the principal and Mr Freddie Maroos. Mr. Maroos is a teacher at the school and has undertaken, together with pupils, the garden project. After seeing the excellent progress of the garden, the borehole was officially handed over by DG Albie. The principal and Mr. Maroos thanked Rotary for making this project possible. In Mr. Maroos' eyes what Rotary is doing can be illustrated in the following way: "You can give someone a fish and he can eat for a day or you can teach him how to fish and he will eat for a lifetime". Rotary offered the means to something sustainable.
