Body of grade 10 pupil found on Hoërskool Garsfontein rugby field
A security officer at Hoërskool Garsfontein in Pretoria discovered the lifeless body of a grade 10 pupil from the school on Tuesday morning.
The body was found on the school’s rugby field.
Gauteng Education Department spokesperson Steve Mabona said police were at the scene to investigate.
"The learner’s family is also at the school, and they will receive the necessary support from our psycho-social support team.
"What is unclear at this stage is how the dead body of the girl learner landed in the school, especially since schools are on recess and there are no learners at school.”
Gauteng Education MEC Matome Chiloane is also expected to visit the school.
