Say Who? Thomas Mofolo Secondary

We are a group of dedicated teachers in practices at Thomas Mofolo
Secondary. The school is what one can refer to as an old school, both
figuratively and literally. There is little to no trace of 4IR technology

at best. The school has a strict policy against learners bringing their
cellphones to schools which makes it very difficult to utilize one big piece

railway, police station, church and it is a ‘nyaope’ drug affected area. The
surrounding has both negative and positive impact on the school such as

and also the church that sometimes bring representatives to come pray
for learners. Inside the school yard there are rams, the school is a one
story building which makes it accessible to everyone, there is a library,
science lab, a kitchen and computer lap. However, the very location of the
school is badly situated because inside the school yard, there is a
Koppi/semi steep slope at the other hidden side of the school, learners
can easily hide there, not go to class, smoke or even get hurt without the
teachers noticing. One has to be passionate about the teaching profession
and be able to be resourceful in order to effectively teach in such a school.
