O
n the 28th of September, the Anglican
Students’ Federation (ASF) suggested
all regions within the Anglican
Church of Southern Africa (ACSA)
plant a tree to commemorate arbour month in all
the campuses across ACSA where there is an
Anglican Society (ANSOC).
This was done because the ASF’s mission is to
serve the needs of students and communities, to
proclaim the Gospel of Christ and to develop
mature Christian students for leadership in church
and society. To lead in society one must be aware
of the problems facing society of which are not
limited to the struggles of our forefathers of
inequality, poverty and other social ills of which
are still not resolved to this day.
Our world is in danger much more today than in
the past. The effects of pollution, deforestation,
drainage of wetlands can be seen in the changing
and severe weather patterns we experience
coupled with earthquakes and shifts in rain
seasons to name a few adverse effects.
Regions answered the call and ASF exchange their
red for GREEN… ASF providing a breath of fresh air
since 1960

North-West University, Vaal is rated as one of the green campuses around South Africa. This is because it
is situated near the banks of Vaal River and its has different animals around it. We chose green colour for
our uniform to show the greenness in us and because green is the colour of nature. As the out gone BEC,
we used to have our meeting by the river side and this spot would make our meetings fruitful as lot of
ideas used to fill our minds as we hear the sound of the river flow and the breeze around us.
The incoming BEC is working on the idea of REDUCE, REUSE and RECYLE because they feel it is their duty
as Ansocers to keep the campus clean. The idea is still in the pipeline and it should work out as soon as
next year.
This is us!!
