Thanks to the generosity of one of our readers, Thandeka has attended a Childcare Training Workshop which also included Health & Safety for Pre-Schools.

Already, Thandeka has new ideas for involving the under 2s in more activities.

Our next aim is to help the other volunteers at the creche upskill by attending the Workshop too.

Donations from Black & Veatch families

Many thanks again to B&V families who have generously donated clothes and toys to Bright Beginnings.  This boy loved the ride on horse!

Thandeka starts a kiosk to raise money

Thandeka has set up a kiosk at the entrance to her creche to raise money for utility bills, such as water and electricity.  So far, she has found that top up payments for DSTV and mobile phone calls have been successful money earners.  Also cutomers have been keen on the cooked food - such as fried chip sandwiches and sales of Coca Cola have also helped meet the costs of water and electricity.

Well done Thandeka!
