Amidst the lush backdrop of Limpopo, a teacher named Liesl Hacker rallied her students in a heartwarming crusade to protect the world's most trafficked mammal, the pangolin. Inspired by the poignant documentary "Pangolin: Kulu's Journey," her initiative, aptly dubbed 'Pangolins Rule,' transformed everyday rulers into agents of change, with each brightly adorned tool contributing towards conservation efforts. Liesl's heartfelt endeavor raised R4,000, underscoring a simple yet profound truth: "change can start with what you have." This story paints a vivid tapestry of youthful curiosity, pragmatic action, and educational empowerment-binding students to the fragile threads of our ecosystem while redefining classroom lessons. At its core, it challenges us to see that profound impact often begins with the smallest gestures.
