Over the past couple of weeks the youth of Pietermaritzburg have spent a little time after homework writing poems to their mothers. Hirschs PMB and Capital Media Newspapers received these poems and had a very difficult and emotional time choosing the best six poems as they were all so heartfelt. The winners in the High School division won a Hirsch Cookbook for mom, R250 Hirsch voucher and 10 movie tickets while the primary schools section got the Hirsch voucher and 10 movie tickets. Margaret Hirsch was on hand to personally hand over the prizes to the winners on Saturday morning and the most amazing thing was that the little ones spent their vouchers buying something for mom instead of themselves. They will, however, definitely be enjoying the movie tickets with all their friends. The winning poems will be published in the Maritzburg Sun, Public Eye and the Edendale Eyethu..... So watch the press.
