MEC MASINA PAYS A SPECIAL TRIBUTE TO THE CHAMPIONS OF EDUCATION

It was a day of celebration, recognition and heartfelt appreciation as the Mpumalanga Department of Education hosted the 2026 Provincial Instalment of the National Teaching Awards at the Nkangala District Municipality Banquet Hall in Steve Tshwete Local Municipality.

Delivering the keynote address, MEC for Education, Ms Lindi Masina paid a special tribute to the more than 32 000 teachers across the Province, describing them as the champions who continue to shape lives, nurture potential and build the future of the Place of the Rising Sun, one learner at a time.

“Behind every successful learner there is a story, and behind many of those stories is a teacher who refused to give up,”

She acknowledged the resilience and commitment of teachers who despite flooding, damaged road infrastructure, bullying, gangsterism, violence and other social challenges, continued to show up for their learners and ensure that teaching and learning remained at the centre of their work.

“Today we want to say thank you. Siyabonga kakhulu. We love our teachers,”

A Province at work for all!
