Merino Mall recently unveiled the frontrunner in their highly anticipated Community Starts Here campaign, with Ermelo English Primary School currently holding the top position. Following the announcement of the first-round winners, the competition among Ermelo schools has intensified as they strive to secure first place by submitting the highest number of Merino Mall purchase slips. Laerskool Ermelo, the previous month's champion, secured the second position, while Ligbron valiantly defended their third-place standing.
