Clinton is also a Mentor for Bright Starts Mentorship programme and told us a bit more about the work he does with the programme:
This is my second year running and my previous mentee got reunited with his family… sad but awesome. I currently meet with my kid once a week for a minimum of an hour but that has hardly ever been stuck to, sometimes I am there for 2 or 3 hours… we do fun things together like playing games, soccer or cycling. We also do school work so that he can get his marks up to scratch and we work on things that he is struggling with.
As a mentor you are more challenged and grown that what the mentee is.. it is extremely rewarding and you learn a lot.

Sam Wilson from Leaf Technologies Durban Sales Team recently traveled to Johannesburg for the Senior Interprovincial Touch Rugby Tournament. The Ladies Team advanced to the finals where they were to take on Western Province for the fourth year running. Western Province had won all three of the previous clashes, so the girls from KZN were determined to break the streak and take home gold.
Play was briefly called off at half time due to dangerous conditions caused by lightning and hail, with the score at 1 – 1. When play finally resumed Natal managed to hang onto the ball and score two tries while only conceding one to Western Province. The girls from the East Coast claimed Gold!
Congratulations to Sam and the rest of the team from everyone at Leaf Technologies.
