Early Childhood Development Project
Early Childhood Development Centres exist in many different forms in our communities, previously some were basic care centres run by elderly community members with no formal training. We now have 10 functional ECD centres staffed by teachers with the appropriate qualifications. Grow ECD has been engaged to evaluate all 10 ECD’s and provide ongoing improvement recommendations. Our focus during 2025 was to convert the hospice in Zenzani into a fully functional centre for 50 toddlers, opened on May. During 2025 we raised the funds to build a state-of-the-art facility in the Lions River Community, opened March 2026. .
