On Friday afternoon, 20 August, many Union High School learners participated in Union Preparatory School’s 𝗥𝗜𝗕𝗕𝗢𝗡𝗦 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗥𝗘𝗠𝗘𝗠𝗕𝗥𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘 installation by tying a ribbon to the school’s front fence to remember a loved one or to show their support for those grieving the loss of a loved one.
Union High School’s head prefects, Hannah Watermeyer and Kyle-Luke du Preez adding their ribbon to Union Preparatory School’s 𝐑𝐢𝐛𝐛𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 installation earlier this morning, Friday, 20 August.
The installation, which will remain on the preparatory school’s front fence in Plasket Street until 30 August, serves to honour all those who have passed away during the Covid-19 pandemic and to show support to all those who are grieving.
