Varsity life is stressful and can be overwhelming for a lot of students. A University of the Witwatersrand student posted a video showing how his tertiary institution helped students destress before the June exams.

The guy raved on his TikTok page @mo.mothibapudi about the amount of fun he had and thanked the SRC for organising it.

"What a great day we had. The SRC deserves so much credit for this. We are heading towards exam season, and this was a very nice way to distress before we get there! Enjoyed myself."
