Education is the key to a brighter future
"Without a sense of caring there can be no sense of community," said head teacher of Smart Minds, Stella Tshishinga.
“When I walked the in the streets of Princess, I see children who should be in a nursery school, playing in the street and this would break my heart because I know that most of the families at Princess are unemployed and can not afford to take their children to a nursery school. I then decided to qualify as a nursery school teacher and I opened Smart Minds,” she said.
“It has made a big difference in my community because the children now have a place to go to during the day and they partake in educational programmes. But, because we are still a new school we are still lacking a lot of things,” Stella added.
Residents are urged to donate toys, kitchen utensils including plastic cups, dishes, spoons, cots, mattress, mats, corrugated iron sheet, cement.
For any donation please call Stella on 076 993 5150.
