The refurbishment of all 40 classrooms at the 106-year-old Parktown Boys’ High School is being funded through a campaign launched after the Zylstra family’s R20-million donation to the Parktonian Foundation. Nine classrooms were completed during the July holidays, with each costing about R70 000 to restore, including wooden floors, desks, LED lighting, and laptops for teachers.

- Description
- “I was kicked out of a lab. They thought I’d blow it up. And I ended up in marketing.”
Serame Taukobong trained as a chemist. His first employer had other ideas. What followed was Unilever, SAB, M-Net, fifteen years at MTN across Africa and then Telkom, a part state-owned telecoms relic haemorrhaging landline revenue and fighting for relevance. On day four as CEO he was in court. On day twenty-five a presidential proclamation wiped R3 billion off the share price before he’d received his first pay cheque.
Today Telkom’s mobile business is the third largest in South Africa and one of the few state-linked companies making money. It turns out the man they threw out of the lab was exactly what the building needed.
