Girls at a Elsies River high school got a kwaai surprise on Tuesday when an international model and celebrity stieked uit at their school to give them a pep talk.
Supermodel Naomi Campbell visited Marian RC Secondary School in Elsies River on Tuesday, causing a frenzy as excited meisies wanted to meet and greet her.
The British model is attending the Condé Nast International Luxury Conference being held in Cape Town from 10 to 11 April, but says she arrived early to visit this local school.
It’s understood Naomi, 48, contacted a local NGO to put her in touch with the school.
‘’I’ve come to South Africa as South Africa is my second home and I came early to come see the girls,” she said after meeting with some learners.
She also dished out some valuable life lessons, and encouraged the girls to “work hard, believe in yourself and you can accomplish anything”.
An excited Michaela de Jager said she never dreamed she would meet the model in real life.
“Naomi is an inspiration for all of us and she encouraged us to follow our dreams, and we love her!” the teen said to loud cheers from her classmates.
