Besige Bytjies se ‘Projek Trots’ Tubatse Chroom het onlangs ‘n nuwe projek geloots naamlik “Projek Trots”. Die doel van hierdie projek is om die omgewing waarin ons werk op te knap en die voorkoms te verbeter. Besige Bytjies het ook aan hierdie projek deelgeneem. Fondse is ingesamel, borge is gekry en ouers is genader om met die projek te help. Op Saterdag 26 Mei, het onderwysers, ouers en kinders saam ingespring om die apparaat op die speelgrond te verf. Ou buitebande is geplant, klein herstelwerkies is aan apparaat gedoen en nuwe skadunet is gespan.

Dankie ook die Besige Bytjie ouers vir hulle finansiële bydraes en ‘n spesiale dankie aan Anri Kleynhans, wat die projek gelei het, en elke ouer wat gehelp het om die speelgrond so mooi te maak.
