Media alert: WCED unveils cattle kraals at De Rust Futura Agricultural School

24 January 2020

Today, Agricultural School De Rust Futura will be unveiling their new state of the art cattle kraals. The WCED erected the kraals on land that was donated to the school by Dr Paul Cluver.

Dr Cluver also donated animals for the kraals. For the first time, learners at the school will be directly working with animals in kraals.

Agriculture is one of the focus areas of the WCED. It is an important contributor our Province’s economy and we need to ensure that our future generation has the expertise, experience and knowledge to contribute towards this important economic sector. Exposing them to ‘real-life’ experiences such as this is important.

We are grateful for the generous contribution of land and livestock for this wonderful initiative!
