In line with our belief in the transformative power of education, we established the Kungwini Early Childhood Development Centre, proudly registered with the Department of Education. The centre offers a safe and nurturing learning environment for preschool children from our surrounding community.
Educational Access: We cater to children aged 6 months to 6 years, with qualified teachers and assistants ensuring the curriculum is effectively delivered. Regular inspections by the Department of Education and Health ensure we meet all required standards. Children receive two nutritious meals and snack breaks daily, supporting their focus and well-being in class.
Empowering Educators: Our team includes local women who were previously unemployed. Through hands-on experience and formal study, they are supported in achieving their NQF Level 4 and 5 Early Learning qualifications—empowering them with both skills and opportunity.
