Weekends in 2011 have become a hive of activity as the Refugee Forum Adult Literacy Classes at Thomas Wildschutt Senior Primary have embarked on the next phase of development – computer literacy in the Zisukhanyo Schools Project Computer Centre.
Andre, member of the school’s family of volunteers and convener of the Literacy Project, approached Mr Jansen (School Principal) and was immediately given the go-ahead to allow the transfer of skills and expertise.
Andre stated that although the programme initially started with adult refugees in mind, their kids have started to partake in the initiative.
Participants, young and old, have begun with simple, tentative exercises in Microsoft Word and by the end of the current year, other software packages will be introduced and mastered as well.
