NWU Vier 20 Jaar van Grootsheid Met Boomplanting Tydens Arbor Week
🌲🌱 🌲🌱 🌲🌱 🌲🌱 🌲🌱
In viering van Arbor Week het die Noordwes-Universiteit (NWU) se gemeenskap op al drie kampusse—Mafikeng, Potchefstroom en Vanderbijlpark—saamgekom om 20 bome🌳 op elke kampus te plant. Hierdie spesiale inisiatief simboliseer 20 jaar van NWU se ryk nalatenskap en beklemtoon die universiteit se verbintenis tot 'n groener toekoms vir die volgende generasie.🍃
Om hierdie mylpaal te merk, is die Karee-boom,🌲 wat uniek is aan die Noordwes-provinsie en ook vanjaar se boom van die jaar is, gekies. Twee variëteite, Searsia lancea (Karee) en Searsia leptodictya (Berg Karee), is geplant—met 10 van elke variëteit per kampus.
Met elke boom wat geplant word, word 'n belegging gemaak in 'n groener, volhoubare toekoms. Hierdie simboliese gebaar dien as 'n herinnering aan NWU se verbintenis tot die omgewing en hul voortdurende impak op die gemeenskap.Hier is op 20 bome vir 20 jaar van grootsheid!
