The Department of Basic Education (DBE) through its flagship programme the National School Nutrition Programme (NSNP), has partnered with Cricket South Africa (CSA) in an effort to help farm schools in the Dr Kenneth Kaunda district. The partnership will culminate in the handing over of a mobile kitchen and cricket facility to Rabana Primary School in Klipplaatdrif, Ventersdorp in North West on Friday, 25 October 2019.
