Students and staff can now get vaccinated on all three campuses of the University of the Free State.

For the month of October, Clicks Pharmacy will be doing vaccinations ( Johnson and Johnson) on the Bloemfontein Campus for staff and students. Clicks Pharmacy staff will be available on the campus in EXR 1(enter from the basketball courts), next to the screening site, on Wednesdays from 09:00 to 13:00.

The following should be noted:

• The COVID-19 vaccine will be administered free of charge.

• You can speed up the process by registering on the COVID-19 Vaccination Programme registration portal before you get to the vaccination site. Staff will be on stand-by to register those who have not yet done so.

• Please bring positive identification, such as an ID book or driver’s licence.

• You will receive proof of your first vaccination via a vaccine card.

In addition to the vaccination site at the Universitas Academic Hospital in Bloemfontein, staff and students can also get vaccinated on the Qwaqwa and South campuses. Take note that the Qwaqwa Campus vaccination site is open on Wednesdays only.

With a grateful heart, Sikhulekile Luwaca takes up his position as Student Representative Council (SRC) President on the Bloemfontein Campus, after the results of the election were announced on 29 March 2017.

An integrated leader

Sikhulekile, known as SK among his peers, said that as a leader, he needed to integrate himself with the student community, and from there he would have the influence to make an impact on society. “I believe in being an open-minded leader who is open to engagement and peaceful resolutions.”

SK said he would like to represent the interest of all students and invited them to raise their concerns. By the end of his term, he wanted to have achieved a number of goals, which include the integration of off-campus students and to provide a shuttle service for them. He said he also wanted to establish and launch an SRC fund. Furthermore he plans to make sure that all structures of student governance are functional, to name but a few.
