News – 2018

We had an incredible opportunity to assist Builders & Let’s Play on the 25th November 2018 at Thuthuka Primary School, where a Multipurpose Sports Court is going to be built. To make the day even better we were joined by Micheal B Jordan and some very special international stars! They had a very nice treat for the learners at Thuthuka Primary School in Tembisa - the learners got to watch a screening of #Creed1 hosted at their School in build up to the release of #Creed2 on the 30th November 2018 amongst other fun activities. Micheal B Jordan has a passion for giving back and that is what this day was all about. Doing what we do best - we had the learners keeping Active out on the field after the movie screening where Micheal B Jordan, #FlorianMunteanu & Director Steven Caple Junior joined in on the activities with the learners. A massive thank you to #MichealBJordan, Buildersfan, Let's Play & all involved. Together we are making a difference and changing lives!

TODAY WE CELEBRATING PHYSICAL EDUCATION! This #PhysicalEducationDay Active Education is bringing Physical Education awareness to Schools around South Africa & showing them the importance of #PhysicalEducation

Physed Month kicked off on the 6th April & aims to bring awareness to Physical Education with our youth.

It allows us to draw attention to the issues, successes & recognize what must still be done as a society.

By encouraging participation through interventions like the Let’s Play Physical Education Challenge, Sports & Physical Education in Schools, children quickly learn that they are part of a team & are not isolated.

This encourages dialogue amongst peers & leading to a better understanding & decision making process.

We were very excited for the Launch of the 2018 Let's Play #PhysedChallengeSA at Cedar Primary School on the 19th April 2018, in the Western Cape. We had some special guests join us Apollo Crews & Mandy Rose from #WWESuperstars & #DHLStormers Bongi Mbonambi, Juarno Augustus & Jaco Coetzee. A massive thank you to Apollo Crews & Mandy Rose, DHL Stormers and all involved for joining us at the 2018 Let's Play Physical Education Challenge Launch. Together we are all making a difference & changing lives.
