“Our learners deserve this initiative as it helps educate on finances and other ways of managing finances. It is an important skill for every individual and acquiring it early in life is an advantage,” said Thatohatsi Maseko, Learner Support Agent (LSA) from the Gauteng East District Office.
Participants stand a chance to win exciting prizes, including bursaries, a boot camp experience and gadgets.
“To take part in the competition, learners are required to form groups of four, encouraging teamwork and collaborative thinking,” she said.
