Seven Steps Academy for the Deaf is a school for learners from Grades R - 12 that have a hearing loss. We provide tuition in the oral-aural method rather than in the manual (sign) system of communication. The majority of the children wear hearing aids which are battery operated while others have cochlear implants.

Seven Steps Academy for the Deaf has recently relocated and are now situated in District Six (Zonnebloem) area since June 2021.

As it stands, the school relies greatly on sponsorship and is in need of ongoing financial support. Ensuring our learners have batteries for their their hearing aids anespecially for hearing aid batteries as well as tubes, tone hooks and filters for repairs.

The average lifespan of hearing aid batteries varies from anything between 3 - 14 days, which means they have to be replaced regularly. The majority of the learners come from very low socioeconomic environments and the parents are struggling to keep up with the costs. Sadly, this has a negative impact on the children - if the hearing aid batteries are flat, they cannot hear and their learning is hampered.

Any amount of donation will go a long way.
