Early Learning Programme - July 2025

Our Early Learning Programme at Die Bron Primary and Masakhane Primary schools is thriving and continues to run weekly with the support of our two dedicated facilitators, who provide engaging early learning activities at both sites.

We also work with learners attending Okkie Smuts Primary School within the framework of our Early Learning Programme.

In this past school term, we successfully integrated Finding Thabo training and resources into our sessions, with a strong focus on developing fine motor and perceptual skills.

We also presented parents’ workshops on how to support early learning at home, at Die Bron Primary School and, in collaboration with Food-4-Thought (https://food4thought.org.za/), at the Wortelgat Outreach Trust (https://www.wortelgat.com/).

Excitingly, we are in the process of developing a new school readiness resource - designed for parents and educators - which will be a fun, educational tool to strengthen children’s development in preparation for school in an engaging and accessible way.

We will tell you more when it is ready.

Our Early Learning and Therapy Room, located on the grounds of Die Bron Primary School, gives children a space to develop skills and emotional stability through play...

Our Early Learning Programme is grounded in the belief that connection is the foundation for growth.

“Early childhood education is the key to the betterment of society." - Maria Montessori

We support every aspect of a child's development - cognitive, emotional, social, and physical - by combining educational tools with genuine love and care.

Through nurturing relationships and responsive learning environments, we help children thrive, learn, and feel truly valued.

“Every child deserves a champion - an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection." - Rita Pierson

Until next time, our very best wishes...

Sincerely,

Regina & team
