Reofilwe has q great passion for poetry. He jumped at the chance to write his own poem on a piece of ald cloth. He listened closely in the class for the instructions he had to follow in order to write the perfect poem.

Paballo was not far behind Reofilwe with creating her perfect poem. How could she improve South Africa, making it a perfect place to live in. She used some recyclable material to decorate her poem. She wanted to win the prize.

Omogolo showed his excitement by smiling his best Colgate smile when presenting his poem to the class. And a "lekker" chocolate to celebrate his masterpiece.

"Yet I was so shy to present my poem to the class, but I smiled when my teacher passed to take a quick photo"

We have the perfect plan to improve South Africa and making sure that there will be a future through poetry in our School Kloof View Primary, Rustenburg our town and North West our Province.

I found a piece of wood to draft my perfect poem and presented it to class as a special treat.

Making South Africa a better place for all of us are very important, starting with reading, writing and believing in ourselves.
