“We all heard about the story of Newton’s pleasant experience with a falling apple. It may not be the first time that the great man saw something falling in his life; it certainly was not the first time he saw a falling apple either. An idea, however, dawned upon Sir Isaac Newton when he saw that particular apple falling off a tree in his back garden. It changed the way people perceived the world around them for ever: the theory of gravitation was born”. source picture by http://www.vivaxsolutions.com.

To whom it may concern
This is to certify that I have known Chipa Thomas Maimela in the SchoolNetSA ICT workshop organised for PIL- Network Innovative Educators earlier this year and went to the ICT Conference in Bloemfontein for a week together.
Chipa proved himself an ICT asset in many ways. He actually was already highly competent in the use of ICT when I meet him. He was able to get a 1st runner-up position in SchoolNetSA and Microsoft Educator – Expect Pil – network in Bloemfontein and thereafter in a very shop space of time Chipa managed to submit a good project for Stars in Education Award.
At the present moment Chipa is awaiting the Provincial results of NTA (National Teaching Award) 2013 Excellence in ICT Teaching and Learning).
Against the background given above, I strongly recommend Chipa for any Responsibility in the ICT arena
Yours faithfully
