North-West University: School of Accounting Sciences awards top achieving students

The School of Accounting Sciences at the North-West University’s (NWU’s) Mahikeng Campus recently recognised its top achievers during a special ceremony.

The goal of the event – sponsored by the South African Institute of Chartered Accountants, Maine Incorporated, and RAin Chartered Accountants – was to acknowledge those students who did well during the first semester and to inspire others to do the same during the second half of the year.

“There is one very important demand in life, that you need to understand and appreciate – it is ‘If you give up, you die’,” said Nthato Selebi, the keynote speaker.

“Also, always hold on to who you are, your values, and your friends,” added Nthatho.

During the awards ceremony, deserving students received gifts and staff and students played games to help everyone unwind and reenergise before returning to their studies.

“The event went well, and we thank our sponsors and all the students who attended – we appreciate you,” said Veronica Molisalife, Chartered Accountancy programme leader.
