This project is all about empowering children to go to school through access to a school uniform ( compulsory in Government Schools in South Africa.) We spend last week visiting the local primary school in Sigagule village, where the graduates from our pre-school are now attending their first year of "big school"called Grade R. They looked adorable in their uniforms, and with their little school bags, and you will see from their faces the excitement at being part of this new world.
Thank you to each person that contributed to our Dress for Success school uniform project-- allowing us to kit each child with their pants, shirt, jersey, socks, shoes and basic stationary. This relieves the financial pressure experienced by the parents, and allows the children to go to school on time proud and ready to learn!
Education is the key! - thank you for helping us unlock it.
