KATHU: BUS ACCIDENT CLAIMS THE LIFE OF TEACHER

The Northern Cape Department of Education is deeply saddened by the tragic loss of an educator from Kathu Primary School following a bus accident that occurred this morning.

A total of 44 learners and 10 educators were travelling to Seodin Primary School to participate in a sports day when the bus they were travelling in was involved in an accident at approximately 07:20.

Sadly, one educator succumbed to injuries sustained in the accident. Another educator was airlifted to Bloemfontein for urgent medical treatment, while three others were transported to Kimberley. Their conditions remain critical. The learners sustained minor injuries and received the necessary medical attention.

As a result of the incident, the scheduled sports day was cancelled. Immediate psychosocial support and counselling were provided to the affected learners and educators. In addition, a counselling session has been arranged for Monday, 15 June 2026, at Kathu Primary School to support the school community during this difficult time.

The District Office is working closely with the school and affected families to provide the necessary support and assistance. The Department extends its heartfelt condolences to the family, friends, colleagues and learners affected by this tragic loss. We also wish all those who were injured a full and speedy recovery.
