Cape Town - Some pupils have bought into the idea of getting pocket money for school to buy from the tuckshop. Children do not get much of a choice on what to buy, but settle for sweets, cheap crisps, doughnuts, hot dogs and fizzy drinks.
This offering has led some parents to stop giving their children money to take to school.
Lwethu Ndengezi, 9, a Grade 4 pupil at Rocklands Primary School, said she only got pocket money for school on Fridays.
“I usually buy a hot dog and a doughnut because they are not sold in shops where I stay. During the week, I carry a lunchbox prepared from home.”

MACON, Ga. With the temperatures dropping, there is an extra push from Macon-Bibb County partners to get as many people out of the cold and to the Brookdale Warming Center.
Right now, they are trying to get the word out about the center and get people there.
It s getting really chilly, and it s only going to get colder over the next couple nights. That s why the county says it s important to get people here who need this center. The key to this, though, is transportation, and that s why the Macon-Bibb County Transit Authority has stepped up to help.
