On Friday, 24 June 2022, the City's Training and Development Department hosted a reading competition for employees who are enrolled as students in the Adult Education and Training (AET programme).
The competition was held at the Banqueting Hall at the Civic Centre and Alderman Theresa Uys, the Mayoral Committee Member for
Corporative Services, was also in attendance.
Tat' uMadiba once said: Education is the most powerful weapon you can use to change the world.' This rings true for our contestants.
and I am proud of all these City employees, who took part in this competition.
It takes a lot of courage to read in another language in front of a hall full of people.
Reading is a critical skill that helps unlock opportunities as we have seen with the previous contestants who have been promoted as a result of increased and improved reading skills.
Others have gone further to obtain their matric and qualifications in further education and training,' said the City's Mayoral Committee Member for Corporate Services, Alderman Theresa Uys.
