Second year Multimedia students of the Department of Information Science at the University of Pretoria rmade sanitisers and applied 3D printing to make visors for Tsako Thabo Secondary School when school reopened after the COVID-19 pandemic as part of their Jont Community-based Project module, JCP 202.

The visors were delivered to the principal, Mr Clement Gama, who was pleased and expressed his gratitude on behalf of the school. Schools need all the support and contributions they can get from the Faculty of EBIT during these challenging times. Tertius reflected after the project: “We wanted to assist where we can, now during the pandemic. We are happy to assist Tsako Thabo Secondary School. We realised that masks are important and that teachers will be able to teach more easily with a visor than a mask. We are enthusiastic about the project and are continuing to make more visors for other schools.”
