Students reach out to communities

Posted on October 08, 2013

At the Nantus Primary School in Eersterust, thirteen students did school readiness tests on three Gr 0 classes with 45 learners each and three Gr 1 classes with 46 learners each. This was done as most of the children experience socio-economic challenges and come from needy households. The tests done by the students also assisted the teachers in better understanding each child, as none of these children has ever been tested.

Meanwhile, ECHO Children’s home in Villeria was assisted by thirteen students who helped thirteen learners with career counselling and a future vision. Students further assisted four nursery schools experiencing difficult socio-economic circumstances, focusing on emotional development and school readiness of the children.
