As part of their annual practical, the Department of Construction Economics and Management, have sent their 1st year students on a week's build with Mellon Housing Initiative for the past four years. This year 80 students signed on and experienced life 'on site'.
They were originally scheduled to work in Wallacedene, but due to the heavy rainfalls, they were moved to Project 2 in Mbekweni, Paarl. They were exposed to: laying foundations, painting and block laying during the week.
For the first time, the students have undertaken to fundraise and donate the money to the charity.
We wish the students all the best for the remainder of their 1st year.
