Join the Macmillan “Bags to School” Competition!

The start of a new school year is always filled with a unique blend of nervous energy and fresh ambition. It’s a time for new notebooks, sharpened pencils, and the promise of a bright academic journey ahead. This year, Macmillan Education Eswatini is making the “Back to School” season even more exciting with the launch of their Bags to School competition, offering Eswatini’s students a chance to win a share of E5,000 worth of prizes!

Macmillan has long been a pillar of the educational landscape, committed to “advancing learning” through quality resources and community support. This competition is designed to celebrate the students who are the heart of our education system, encouraging them to share their preparation and school pride with the rest of the nation.
