Hundreds of prospective students visited the Faculty of Education on Saturday, 24 February, as part of Stellenbosch University's annual Open Day.

They had the chance to receive information about the degrees and opportunities available to them.

“You are on the verge of making one of the most important decisions of your life," said Prof Ronelle Carolissen, Vice-dean: Learning and Teaching at one of the information sessions.

“There are many opportunities available to young people who become teachers. It opens up the world to you, both locally and abroad.

“Becoming a teacher is one of the most important things you could do. Any other profession starts with a committed teacher," she concluded.
