3 years after Anele Tembe died, her family and former high school Durban Girls’ College have opened a library in her honour.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The library was designed by old girl Andrea Kleinloog, marking the importance of recognising the standard of excellence at Durban Girls’ College.

Speaking to the publication, Anele’s brother Vukile said the tribute library was an initiative the family knew was dear to her heart.

“She embraced knowledge and education. Libraries last long in a community, provided the library is consistent. Given Anele’s school and its legacy of more than 100 years, I believe they will do well in preserving this tribute for generations to come.”

It hasn’t been an easy journey of healing from her death, said Vukile, but he’s grateful for the support of his family and friends.
