Agriculture MEC Nonceba Kontsiwe visited Hofmeyer in the Enoch Mgijima Local Municipality, within the Chris Hani District Municipality, to lead a Right to Learn campaign aimed at empowering learners and promoting agricultural education. The campaign brought together schools, learners, educators and community members to provide essential resources and practical farming support. During the visit, the MEC handed over both school essentials and agricultural inputs to strengthen learning and community food production. The programme highlighted the connection between education, agriculture and nutrition, showing how school gardens can equip learners with practical skills while contributing to food security. By engaging directly with schools, the campaign encourages both educational development and sustainable agricultural practices in the community.
