ANNUAL REPORT 2014
Proverbs 19: 17 Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the Lord,
and he will reward them for what they have done .
OVERVIEW
The past year have been challenging yet fruitful. As a
young organisation, our team is small, our capacity low
and our resources very limited. Just finding the time to
meet monthly was difficult. However, when I look back
now, reflecting on what we have accomplished so far I
can certainly say that I will not trade my team for any-
thing. A special thank you to the Board of Directors:
Wim Beukes; Maude Goliath; Burnese Jooste and
Monde Stemele. I appreciate their guidance and sup-
port.
As a team, we recognise the vital importance for all role
players to be actively and effectively involved in the edu-
cation process and our vision is to strengthen and ca-
pacitate these partnerships. We plan to fulfil this process
through three main functions. Firstly through various
evaluations done by a field expert in an effort to compile
a needs report. Areas of evaluation include the physical
environment of the facility, the educational resources
available, curriculum and assessment practices, institu-
tional management, parental involvement and health and
safety practices. Secondly by addressing these identified
needs through training, workshops, seminars and net-
working opportunities focussing on leadership, parent-
ing, tutoring and classroom management. And lastly by
establishing networking platforms where financial and
resource needs of facilities can be met through fundrais-
ing, resource provision and access to services.
We are up for the challenge and are looking forward to
2015.

FAIR CARE PROJECT
The purpose of this project is improve, upgrade and
build capacity in Early Childhood Development (ECD)
partial care facilities in the Swartland municipal area.
There are roughly 74 crèches, not including all the farm
crèches. Many of these facilities are run with the mini-
mum resources and the children are not being adequate-
ly cared for. Furthermore many facilities are not imple-
menting a structured, standardised educational pro-
gramme and the young child moves to Grade R with de-
velopmental insufficiencies. Through this project, we
would like to support the local department of social de-
velopment to improve this situation for our young chil-
dren.
To start this process we have invited the principals of all
the crèches in the Swartland area to a stakeholders
meeting in July this year. Here we explained the process
and how they can contact us for an evaluation.
Our evaluation visits started November. Our website can
be visited for more details on their needs.
KHULISA ABANTWANA PROJECT
The main purpose of this fund is to support the learners
who are at risk of academic failure in primary or high
school and better support the educational environment
where this learner finds him- or herself. The fund has
two main applications. Firstly, it will pertain to Interven-
tion programmes for high risk learners and secondly to
the capacity building of teachers.
Certain tendencies are often picked up by the WCED
and even by teachers currently in the field. These trends
indicate certain inadequacies and the purpose of this
part of the fund is to roll out workshops and training op-
portunities where teachers can engage in better practic-
es and extend their knowledge and expertise. These
workshops and training sessions will be conducted by
appropriate field experts.
We met with the Special Needs Team of the local WCED
office and identified a learner at risk. Lisa would most
probably fail Grade 9 unless urgent intervention was im-
plemented. With the help of funding, we managed to put
together an intervention team who worked out an individ-
ualised plan for Lisa to attend daily tutoring, occupational
therapy and counselling sessions in preparation for the
November examinations. We were excited to learn that
Lisa successfully passed her year and are moving on to
Grade 10. With the help of the team, suitable and man-
ageable subjects were chosen for Lisa and we will con-
tinue to support her academic growth.
We are looking forward to taking this project to the next
level in 2015 by helping more children and bringing infor-
mation to teachers.
OUR PLANS FOR NEXT YEAR
Our current projects are running successfully and we
plan to expand and build on it’s success.
Furthermore we have decided to bring information and
knowledge to the teachers and communities by offering
various talks, presentations and seminars which speak
to issues relevant to the context of South African educa-
tion today.
Seminars planned for 2015
 Bullying: Supporting both the victim and the bully
 Learning differences and Learning needs
 Culture and diversity in education
 Motivation in learning and teaching
Training planned for 2015
 Leadership training for teachers
 Parenting courses
Various workshops and talks are also scheduled for
2015. Information on this can be obtained from our web-
site.
"Although as individuals we possess such
splendid gifts and talents, we must not deny
our inadequacies and blind spots. Once we
realise that other people compliment our
skills and we start combining our efforts, we
can reach much further much faster." -
