Open Day 2026๐Ÿ‚๐ŸŒค๏ธ ๐Ÿ€

Our little stall in the corner of Wasgoedpennetjie Lane saw plenty of foot traffic. Students, old and new, were told about our mission, our projects, and our fun little adventures by the enthusiastic executives of 2026. We hope to spot the matriculants we spoke to on campus in the coming years, sporting their hand made "hout" couture Green Team wooden bead bracelets. ๐Ÿชต

Goodluck with your upcoming exams Matrics! We believe in you, and we'll see you soon๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ’š

Happy Earth Day 2026! ๐ŸŒŽ ๐Ÿค

Tell us your favorite thing about the Earth in the comments secrion! ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ

Today the students of Potch paid tribute to the best planet in the entire solar system. They created a piece of art that represents how every person has an effect on this earth, no matter how big or small ๐Ÿ‘ โœจ
With their green thumbs and fingers, they also planted a small tree in the library grass gardens, once again giving back to the Earth for all it gives us ๐Ÿƒ ๐ŸŒŠ ๐ŸŒ…
This tree will hopefully one day provide not only shade for much needed study-breaks during the summer months, but also a constant reminder that when working together, creating change becomes that much easier...

We like it... PICASSO๐ŸŽจ๐Ÿ–Œ๏ธ๐Ÿพ

Such a fun way it was to unwind before the daunting Semester Tests. Our Glass Bottle Painting event allowed students to embrace their creativity and lay down the books for an evening of art and connectedness๐Ÿ’šโœจ

Glass bottle painting not only destresses and centres the mind, but also helps the environment by reusing old glass bottles, instead of having them end up in a pile of rubbishโ™ป๏ธ

Brighting up your res room/flat with vibrant colours when the sunshine hits it on the windowsill is the best bonus though ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ˜

Another PAWS Haven outreach completed, with hopefully many more to come๐Ÿฅน

No better way to spend that awkward 2 and a half hour break between classes than in the fresh air of a dirt road with a dog on a leash, or chilling in the shade with cats and kittens surrounding you๐Ÿ’š

Every animal at PAWS Haven looks at you with nothing but love and admiration... Except maybe a kitten or two fascinated by their new toy, or a saucer of milk๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜ป

Your perfect match is waiting for you, all you have to do is go find them! ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿ’š

Thank you to for allowing us to join your outreach as volunteers. We'll definitely do it again๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ˜‰

What do you get when you toss a mountain of litter, black bags, a group of unsung heroes, and the Green Team into a bucket and mix?

๐ŸšฎA ROADSIDE CLEAN UP๐Ÿ’š

The collab with and was a huge success. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ‰๐Ÿ‡
Without their compassion for their local community and CSE projects, a change would not have been made today.
Together with the Green Team, they tirelessly worked away their Thursday morning by picking up astounding amounts of wrongly discarded trash.

The amount of rubbish collected today emphasizes the dire need of appropriate waste disposal systems in local communities. It is up to the students of today who are our leaders of tomorrow to see these problems and effectively implement solutions. Together, we can make a change. Together we can pave a greener future. ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒณ๐Ÿšฎ

Come Rain or Shine... โ˜”๐ŸŒฆ๏ธ๐Ÿชฑ๐ŸŒณ (Part 2: Honourable Mentions)

As mentioned in our previous post: We combine sustainability with FUN.

Our projects are filled with laughter, teamwork, friendship, unconditional support, pure strength (Jess with her Pickaxe๐Ÿ˜‰) and sometimes interesting music choices๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’š

PS. No earthworms or shovels were harmed in the planting of these Trees๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ›

Come Rain or Shine.... The Green Team will Plant a Tree๐ŸŒฆ๏ธโ˜”๐Ÿชฑ๐ŸŒณ

This past week many brave members of the Green Team braved the unpredictable Potchefstroom weather and dug deep... Literally...๐Ÿ˜‰

Through some slipping and sliding, and getting their hands dirty, they managed to plant 3 beautiful little trees in the Heilige Akker Neighborhood. These trees will one day provide shade for the children and grandchildren of the residents in their playground, as well as offer shade and refuge on the bicycle course/veld for not only the residents, but birds, insects and citters as well. ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฟ๏ธ๐Ÿ›
The Green Team strives to combine sustainability and green-living with fun, adventure and lifelong memories.๐Ÿ’š

A special thanks to the Residents of the Heilige Akker Community, for their willingness and passion to help us make a change. We are grateful. ๐Ÿค๐ŸŒณ

Who needs romance when you've got plants?๐Ÿชด๐Ÿ˜‚

A special thanks to all who supported our Valentines day fundraising stall this year๐Ÿ’š

Our motto for the day was "Buy a Plant, Plant a Tree" and without your support, our funds for our tree planting project would not look as good as they do now๐Ÿ˜๐ŸŒฒ

We wish you a Happy Valentines๐Ÿฅ‚๐Ÿ’–
