Take A Girl Child To Work
On Thursday, 25th August 2005, Church of Scotland Hospital took an initiative and invited schoolgirls to visit the hospital. The intension was to educate them about careers and bursaries that are available in the health sector. Sixteen girls from Cabangokuhle, Sakhiseni, Zenzele and Fundokuhle High School. Girls were taken on a tour around the hospital, different departments and were given a chance to learn more about different jobs. Public Relations team explained about the purpose of the conducting projects like these stating the importance of education.

The departments who participated in this project are: Occupational Therapy, Physiotherapy, Speech Therapy, Dietician, Theatre, Surgical Ward, X-Ray, Maternity Public Relations and Finance i.e. OPD, Data Capturing, Revenue. A big thank you to all the departments who participated in this project especially to Dr Ngubane and Dr Mtshali and all Theatre Staff, all Sisters in wards and all HODs for their time.
 

Students were then given evaluation forms where they stated their opinions about the projects and areas that that they feel should be improved. At the end of the day we girls had lunch and were given school bags and pencil cases and a good time.

Church of Scotland Public Relations team would like to thank all school principals for allowing children to take part in this project.
