SADTU in the Western Cape will honour the Union’s  late Deputy General Secretary Don Pasquallie  by renaming its provincial offices after him followed by a memorial lecture.
Cde Pasqualle joined SADTU in 1991 in Elsies River and rose within the ranks to become Western Cape Provincial Secretary and later, the National Deputy General Secretary in 2006. He died in a horrific car accident, together with his brother, on 27 January, 2008. 
A revolutionary educationist, Cde Pasquallie served SADTU with distinction.  He led the Union’s National Bargaining team and was committed to improving service delivery to members through better training and communication.

SADTU’s Deputy President Mabutho Cele will deliver the memorial lecture. The provincial leadership from the Tripartite Alliance made up of COSATU’s Tony Ehrenreich, SACP’s Anthony Diederich and ANC’s Jerimia Thuynsma will also address the occasion.
