Pre-School 2011

Three of our pre-school children have been enroled in Grade 1 at schools in the community for next year. The expressions and contentment on the faces of all of our pre-school children speak for themselves.

Donation by school

The Grade 5 pupils of CR Swart Primary School, Middelburg donated a large amount of groceries to the Care Village. On the photo some of the proud pupils can be seen with the manager, Colin Hasses.

School Leaders

Two of our children who have proved themselves to be leaders at their respective schools, are Sipho and Sezi. Sipho has been headboy of his school during 2011. Apart from being a provincial Taekwondo champion, he is also an accomplished goalkeeper in soccer. Sezi who has been selected as a leader at her school for 2012 is a good netball player. We are very proud of our two young leaders.

Donation Xstrata

Thanks to a generous donation from Xstrata Coal the Care Village has been enabled to purchase a larger school bus to replace our present bus which will enable us to admit more children of school going age. On the photo can be seen Colin Hasses (Manager), Linda Els (Iveco), Basani Tshabangu (Xstrata), John Brislin (Treasurer) and Solly Mogola (Board Member).

Simotech, an official Siemans partner, in a joint venture with Sebona Driving Academy of Middelburg, are sponsoring 4 of our children in obtaining code 10 driver licenses, the purpose being to empower them in the future in their choice of careers. On the photo with the manager can be seen the directors of Simotech together with the 4 boys proudly holding the Simotech banner.
