DE LA BAT SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF - WORCESTER
SCHOOL OF SKILLS (PART 6)
SEPTEMBER - DEAF AWARENESS MONTH

With a feeling of nostalgia we took the road on a rainy day to Worcester. Our visit to De La Bat School for the Deaf, was the perfect ending to our School of Skills adventures.

The dynamic of this school is next level. A combined Mainstream and Skills Development arrangement secures that no kid fall through the cracks.

Sewing
Beauty
Welding
Woodwork
Hospitality
Design

There is a wide selection of skills development, to secure each kid excels in an area they feel comfortable with.

It takes a special kind of leader to bare and raise a dream. These teachers aren't only educators, but they nurture and mould the kids from sometimes complicated childhoods, leading them into their futures where they deserve a place in society. The teachers never stop getting educated themselves. Constant training and other courses in their own time, keep them up to date with current trends with regards to the kids.

In their final year, the Level 4 students are educated to think like Entrepeneurs. Budget planning, Costing and Designing of Advertisements forms part of their Academics, while getting practical experience at local businesses brings the finishing touches to what they've learned during their years of school.

We visited the Neeldework class and took a final walk through the hallways of a school who is the voice for the students, that screams out loud to those who choose not to hear

The silence in this school was deafening, to such an extend, it forced us to look, observe and take in our surroundings with a whole different perspective.
Don't be deaf to what you don't want to hear. Don't be ignorant to how you can help. You can contact the school at Tel: 023 110 0146🤘🫶

Every possible skill is available for the kids to conquer, and they definitely rock it!!! Bursaries and certificates that are internationally recognised, are some of the rewards and acknowledgements for dedicated and hardworking learners in some of the workshops.

The Sport and Culture Departments don't stand in the back row when it comes to achievements, and Social Events is a definite must. The Derby Week is a build-up to much excitement. From Hospitality to Hairdressing, every workshop is involved to make this a success

This is a Feeding Sceme school with no schoolfees. Fundraisers and Market Days are a crucial part of their financial planning. Teachers dig deep into their own pockets sometimes, to make a plan work.

Everybody needs somebody to make them believe. In this case, every single teacher of this school stands like a Mamma Bear behind every kid, guarding, guiding and shaping the futures of kids that don't have to take one step back for society.

From our first visit four years ago up till now, the kids in this school still wows us with their good manners. Every kid greets us with a smile as we pass them in the hallways.

There is a hostel on the schoolgrounds for the kids staying far away, and others staying in towns close by, are picked up and dropped every day.

They are a school who is proud of every kid's success story. The school focus on finding jobs for Level 4 kids. Practical experience during their final year are a priority.

PAARL SCHOOL OF SKILLS - PAARL (PART 2)

When you just know it's going to be a special visit, you start counting the sleepies. This was the case before going to this school.

At this school the teachers don't only imprint their knowledge on the kids by teaching them a skill, but they aim to create a business-minded attitude too.

With basic support from the government, these teachers don't shy away from tackling the task at hand. They equipped themselves where needed, to make sure the kids receive the best education possible.

Consumer Studies/Sewing, Woodwork, Agriculture, Maintenance, Welding, Office Aministration and Hospitality are workshops available at this school. A huge variety that can most definitely cater for every child's hidden talent or raw skill.

Every classroom feels like 'coming home'. A safe environment where eager and commited teachers help the kids to develop their skills. Success stories of kids finding their place and excelling in the work environment, make the teachers proud as if the kids are their own. The dream for these kids, is for everyone to have a job.

We spend time in the Sewing Class. A cosy atmosphere with a hint of togetherness lingered in the air. Watching these kids creating something that they are proud of, left a warm feeling.

The school host Market Days to sell the kids creations, and the money goes back to each workshop to buy new materiaal for new creations.

If you know how to contribute by any means possible, you can contact the school at Tel: 021-863 2043. Follow them on Facebook to stay informed.

We left feeling inspired and proud of every kid..... without even knowing their names.

ATLANTIS SCHOOL OF SKILLS - ATLANTIS (PART 1)

From the voice on the phone with the very first phone call..... till the moment we drove out their gates.. this school just owned our hearts.

Passion, Drive, Initiative, Vision, Moral Values, firm rules with a soft hand.... they don't hold back on creating every possible opportunity for the kids.

The focus is to give all the kids exposure and ownership. Every Friday is Open Day at the school where the Level 4 class can show-off their skills. Workshadowing during their final year, give the kids the opportunity to experience real-life worksituations first hand.

This school works with an Exit Plan for Level 4 and go out of their way to find Tertiary Education opportunities for the kids.

Home Affairs visit the school for ID Applications, and with a Councillor and Gym on-site, both mental and physical health are cared for

With basic support from the Government they must think out of the box to generate funds, and they surely don't lack in the 'Initiative' department. A Market Day twice a year where all the creations of all the students are sold, brings excitement and a feeling of accomplishment. Several departments in this school, give each kid enough opportunity to find their niche.

The school is always on the lookout for new opportunities for the kids. If you want to find out more to what this school has to offer, or know how to contribute towards these kids futures, you can
contact Me Cupido at Tel: 021- 572 5022. Follow them on Facebook to stay updated.

Angels donated material to the Upholstery Department
..........................................................................................

To us Angels, every donation is significant. We jump of joy every time someone choose us to bring dignity to what they decide to part with.......
..... but somehow it hits different when a donation enables us to be part of keeping a legacy alive, and at the same time invest in the potentially succesful entrepeneurs of tomorrow. A huuuuuge donation of material who belonged to a lady who lived and breathed needlework, made it possible for us to plan visits to Schools of Skills.

Join us on our journey as we walk through the hallways of these schools, meet extraordinary teachers inspiring kids..... to become extraordinary.

WOMEN'S MINISTRY - KALKFONTEIN

Nothing comes close to greeting with a hug and
an "it's been too long"...... when you meet up with people who were once strangers, but became friends.

This was a visit we really looked forward to. The ladies of the Women's Ministry in Kalkfontein, still have the same adoring personalities and warm hearts, since our previous visit in 2023.

They are a busy bunch. Reaching out to the people in their community, stays a desire close to their hearts. In their Ward there are several farms, and whether it is planning an event for the teenagers, or cooking up a storm to hand out a warm plate of food, they keep an close eye on the people on the farms. Whatever they can collect among them and their friends, becomes an Outreach once a year, to the people on the farms. The aim is always to have enough toiletries, bedding and clothes to hand out

Angels were able to donate men's and women's winter clothes, kitchenware, bedding and curtains.

We said goodbye with one more hug, promising each other, to not let so much time go, before visiting them again.

ANGELS IN ACTION CELEBRATING 4 YEARS!!!!

Another year has gone by, and we've reached the 4-year mark.

Today I want to honor the ANGELS of Angels in Action. The BOARD MEMBERS give their time, patience, hands, knowledge, expertise, and sometimes their own money too, when we fall short. Despite having day jobs, other responsibilities and families that require their attention, they never back down from any challenge or deadline that we face.

The ANGELS VOLUNTEERS step up within a heartbeat, showing the same dedication than the Board Members. Always giving their time and hands with enthusiasm and a smile.

Our ANGELS IN THE FIELD, are just a phone call away, and keep their ears to the ground for possible Outreaches. They are 100% spot-on with their leads, successing into an Outreach.

Our FRIENDS OF ANGELS bring a different dynamic to the table with their talents and years of experience. Without them some Outreaches won't be possible. Sharing who they are with us, makes a massive difference.

The 'behind-the-scenes' are crazy. By the time we hit the road on an Outreach, many hours were spent on brainstormings, meetings, research, late-night-whatsapps, preparation, sorting of donations, Administration and Logistics..... but when the going gets tough ....... the Angels get going.

Not one Outreach is possible without every single person choosing and entrusting us with their donation. We can't exist without you. We are humbly grateful every time we receive an email, whatsapp or phonecall to collect. We handle every single item with respect and make it our mission to find a new happily-ever-after home.

We stand in absolute awe, when we look back at
117 Outreaches and almost 11 000 safe kilometres, that we had the privilege to be part of. We promise to always treat every Outreach with the dignity we believe it deserves. We promise that our hearts will always beat in sync for this worthy cause that we believe in.

"You don't have to ask for permission to fly. The wings are yours, and the sky belongs to no one".

Gratitude in abundance

CEO

SOUP KITCHEN - WELLINGTON

Thinking back.....the road to Wellington was symbolic to what this Outreach portrayed.

A very thick and scary mist, forced us to travel much slower than we intended to. With every turn, we were hoping to find clear skies, and every time it was a sinking feeling when we realised it's not yet the case...... then suddenly.....blue skies and sunshine.

Every day, this Soup Kitchen is the clear blue sky to more or less 130 people trying to survive in the mist. With strong and dedicated leadership and two very commited volunteers, three ladies run this Soup Kitchen. To them, it is not just another day in the office, because their aim is to bring relief and hope.

Monday to Friday, throughout the year, the people from this community know where to find a hearty bowl of food. From Chicken Breyani to Pasta or Soup, they make magic in huge pots every single day. This Soup Kitchen makes sure the pensioners and schoolkids aren't left out either.

Not only do they serve food, but any other donations they receive, are shared among the people as well.

Soup Kitchens are the lifeline for so many people every day. If you want to bring relief to those who bring relief to others, contact Christephine at Cell 076 501 8441.

Until the mist clears up for these people, they know the way to their blue skies, where sunshine is waiting.

Angels were able to donate Soup ingredients, fresh vegetables and 20 loaves of bread.

As always we just love it when our followers join us on an Outreach. Thank you Hendry, it was nice having you part of this day.

HANDS OF THE FUTURE EDUCARE
WALLACEDENE, KRAAIFONTEIN

Through potholes, tiny roads and hundreds of informal settlement houses, we went on a treasure hunt to find a gem. This gem exist because of one man's dream and vision, to not be blind to the need of the community any longer.

This Educare accommodates kids from 3 months to
6 years old, getting them ready for big school one day. A strong presence of Moral Values and education, lingered in the air like a fragrance, when we arrived at this Establishment.

Their name fits them perfectly. From the Principal to every single Teacher, Admin and Kitchen Staff, they leave no stone unturned to educate the adults of tomorrow.

They face enormous financial challenges. Getting no support from the government and not receiving all the schoolfunds every month, leave them no choice but to dig deep into their own pockets sometimes.

The Principal of this school don't only bring change by Education, but also reach out to the community. Everybody knows there is an open door policy when life gets tough. Either with a bowl of porridge in the morning to feed the body, or counceling, to feed the mind and soul.

All the kids get breakfast and lunch. They stay open 6:00 - 18:00 to accommodate parents with their working hours.

This Educare can bring more difference to the community, if they can get more help. Some structual finishes still need to happen. Their daily needs are a constant reminder how much must still fall in place for them, to become the shining star they are meant to be.

Don't ignore the vision and mission that comes from a pure and giving heart. Please contact the Principal Gerald Claims at Cell Nr 078 001 4896, email adress: [email protected], or visit their FB Page, if you know how to help

Angels were able to donate winter clothes, kitchenware and educational toys, and we most definitely didn't forget about the special treat for the kids.
