The Grade 9 pupils from Masedi Combined School in Tshikota, led by Mr Cedric 'Vhafuwi' Mbedzi, offered free cleaning and washing services to Ms Mashudu Mugwena as part of Casual Day activities.

As part of Casual Day activities, the Grade 8 pupils from Masedi Secondary School paid the disabled Ms Lydia Maeko (third from right) a surprise visit last Friday. They cleaned her house, washed dishes and cleaned the yard.

Many people across the country joined the Casual Day festivities, not even knowing what they mean. This is a different story altogether at Awelani Christian School at Shayandima, where almost all of the 500 pupils bought articles such as T-shirts, caps, stickers and other items in support of the day. They also had a fulfilling day at  school. "We have told the children about the importance of buying these items. This  is for a good cause as the money raised will go towards assisting the less privileged," said Mr Thifhelimbilu Rasikhanya, principal of the school.
