A holistic approach to learning



"You can't teach a hungry child" is the slogan of our partner Peninsula Schools Feeding Association (PSFA) and unfortunately this is a reality in the majority of the Zisukhanyo schools. The Project partners with  PSFA to supplement the Western Cape Education Department feeding schemes to ensure that learners have every opportunity to concentrate on their studies throughout the day.


In some cases, where there have not been adequate food preparation facilities, a brand new kitchen has been funded for the school. Two of such kitchens are shown above.

South Africa had been experiencing a national shortage in bottled gas, which the schools use in the preparation of meals. However one school was determined that the learners would not be impacted so they came up with a very creative solution to the problem!!
