Siphakeme offers training, empowerment and skills development to pre-school teachers from lower socio-economic communities in Pietermaritzburg area.

Maximum growth of a human brain is in the first six years of life. To maximize this development children require stimulation and teaching. Many young children from lower economic families do not have optimal pre-school learning and many of these pre-schools do not have skilled, trained teachers. Each pre-school teacher trained will impact on the development of 20 to 30 children each year. Siphakem

My students had such fun in our art lesson. Our theme was "Toys" and they used egg shells for their teddy bears, cork printing for their aeroplanes and sponge painting for their balls.

Our theme was "People who help us". We had fun making buses with the bus drivers and nurses caps.

We were so blessed to have Mrs Ellen Borain give our Educare ladies such an interesting talk on Emotional Quotient. The ladies thoroughly enjoyed every minute and have learned so much. We are going to make our own "Colour Monsters". Your practical ideas and engaging approach have given them valuable tools that they can use in their classrooms

Our creative art lessons in the mornings are always fun. We use different materials to create our art.

Singakwenza presented a wonderful Gross Motor Waste2Toys workshop for us. My ladies left feeling inspired, encouraged and excited. They discovered how simple recycled materials can be transformed into meaningful teaching apparatus. Thank you once again Singakwenza . Your commitment to empowering educators and enriching the lives of young children is truly remarkable

We had such fun making shakers using recycled materials for our percussion lessons! The ladies really enjoyed the hands-on activity. Everyday items can be turned into wonderful musical instruments.

The Educare ladies had great fun in creating pictures using recycled materials to explore the colour red. They also enjoyed using toothbrushes and sponges on rectangles and squares to make frames for Mother's Day gifts. They made the little duckling shells using egg shells
