7 weeks to go till we close for the December Holidays! Our much anticipated "Graduation" and "Year End Celebrations" are happening next month.
During the first half of the year 3 yr old Amzolele jumped off a swing and broke his leg and our dear cook passed away after a short battle with cancer.
Thereafter, everything has gone smoothly and our 5 year olds are well prepared and ready to move on to Grade R and "big" school.
We are thankful for the small subsidy which we get from the Department of Education. However this only covers meals and stationary for 25 children (we have 40 children enrolled, aged from 1 yr to 5 yrs) and a basic salary for 1 teacher and 1 cook.
We raise monetary funds to cover a teachers assistant, maintenance of the building, playground equipment and grass cutting.
So grateful to The Stretch Foundation and the Rayne family who give us a monthly donation. And the other individuals who give donations or visit and bring toys, books, groceries, clothes etc
These donations are an integral part in the success of Step by Step Day Care Centre and we are so very grateful!
Many thanks. Lindiwe (Founder and Teacher), Agnes(Teachers Assistant) and Thalane (Cook) and the Committee.
