Graskop is a small town in the heart of the Panorama Route in Mpumalanga. Surrounded by beautiful mountains, it occasionally disappears in the mist like a modern day Brigadoon. This is the continuous story of Graskop and its people written by Graskop's one and only journalist, Gerda van den Bos. Oh yes and the occasional blog about the rest of the area including the Kruger National Park.

Glory Hill Primary School, Graskop, needs your help
Ask any learner or teacher at Glory Hill Primary School
what makes the school unique and they will tell you… It’s the place where
everybody is somebody special. The children are proud to be part of the school.
The teachers and Principal Daan Rossouw still have a passion for teaching and a
love for the children. You can feel it when you visit the school. The parents
don’t pay school fees, most of the children come from very poor household. The
school gets by with a minimum of funds. If something needs to be done, the
teachers do it. One thing they can’t do though is build a school hall. The
children have to assemble outside, which is not a problem in fine, sunny
weather, but Graskop is not famous for its fine and sunny weather. Most of the
time it’s raining or everything is covered in mist. Then the children and
teachers have to stand in the cold. Please if there is anyone out there, who can help this school to build a hall or even rent a
marquee tent please comment or send me an email.
