Enoch Mpianzi never got to wear the black and red Parktown Boys' uniform.

His body was found on Friday at the lodge at Brits in the North West where he and about 200 other grade 8 pupils were attending the camp.

According to police, the makeshift raft that Mpianzi and other pupils built during an activity overturned, dumping them in the water.Lesufi described on Friday what a daunting task it had been to recover the teen's body from the water.“Where the children were, it feeds towards the dam. The police felt they need to reduce the dam levels and the flow of the [Crocodile] river so they can check if the missing child is in the dam. They unleashed all their resources.

“The body was found deep in the bushes. Police said it was fortunate that the body did not go into the dam ... We took the family to confirm and verify [that it was him],” he added.Telling Mpianzi’s family that the body had been found was traumatic.

Swimming lessons should be taught before anyone goes near water.

Leave Parktown boys, look at the other incident where they grade 7 had drowned on Wednesday afternoon at the Magaliesburg primary school's hostel and why wasn't it only being made public late last night 😡😡😡😡😡

Many foreign kids drown all over the world every day. What makes this so newsworthy?

This was sad and tragic. Going to the river, building your own raft after the rain...🙈 & 200 + students. Reckless and poor planning.

THEN the assistant water polo coach was charged on 144 counts of sexual assault. NOW THIS! So sorry to hear this MHDSRP condolences to family and friends
