In the heart of Cape Town, a cherished piece of land, MN Moerat (SP High Field), located at the corner of Old Kendal and Boundary Road, is at risk of being sold off. This land holds significant personal and communal value, as it was once a gift to our local school, serving as a vital space for education and community gatherings.

The City of Cape Town's recent move to sell this land undermines the very foundation of what it represents. It’s more than just a field; it’s a cornerstone of our community’s heritage and development. This land has been a safe haven for young students, allowing them a place for extracurricular activities, development of sports skills, and cultivating a sense of community spirit.

Selling this land to private interests not only robs the local school of its essential resource but also disrespects the intent of the original gift. It's crucial that we act now to prevent this invaluable community asset from disappearing.

Statistics show that access to outdoor spaces significantly enhances educational outcomes and community well-being. The children's futures depend on the environment we provide them with today.

We urge the City of Cape Town to reconsider this decision and preserve MN Moerat (SP High Field) as a public resource dedicated to the educational development and well-being of our children. Let’s safeguard this land for future generations.

Please add your voice and sign this petition to halt the sale and protect our community’s legacy.
