Every donor will get their name on a brick!

Have you ever wished you knew or were taught what you are trying to learn now, while you still had the brain absorbing capabilities of a sponge?

Who will benefit? Here's a list;

  • 40 soon-to-be EXTRAORDINARY toddlers or how we like to call them “The businessmen and -women of the Future”.
  • 7 direct new job opportunities; 4 teachers, a headmaster, a cook, and a gardener.
  • Indirect job opportunities also include an architect and the local construction crew.
  • 5 external instructors that will work on a weekly basis, these include; swimming instructors, golf instructors, etc.
  • The WORLD...We will be a Green-focused school, we will be recycling all possible waste. The school will also be partially made of these structures for example; the playground, some buildings, etc.

The main goal behind this campaign is to raise money to cover the Property Down Payment and/or building of temporary classrooms. If there is any money left it will go into equipment for;

  1. Classrooms
  2. Kitchen
  3. Playground
  4. Office

We would like to be registered and ready by January 2020, so we want to start registration in September 2019. But to be able to do that we need to have a property ready.

What would your support mean to us? In short...The WORLD!

The vision started in 2015, while we were still studying so we couldn’t pursue this dream until we had some life experience. We are a team of 2 professionals; a veterinarian and a teacher.

Rudél, the veterinarian, is the vision and drive behind the dream. She finished her studies in 2016 and did her year of community service where she again saw the gap in the system for a new generation with that basic business mindset and the skills to pursue a career in business. She witnessed that there is no sense of how to work with money and because of that these generations won't be able to help the economy grow.

Michaël, the teacher, finished his Science degree in 2016 and enrolled for a Postgraduate Certificate in Education. He got some working experience in China teaching young learners English. He returns home with the knowledge of how young learners work and how to manage daily tasks involved with teaching these learners. He was one of the people that left South Africa with the hope to find a better place to settle. He was inspired by Rudél and now they are working to help South Africa, one child at a time.

Currently, South Africa's economy is going backward and this is partly because of the gap in the education system. The generation before us are abandoning ship, they do not believe that there is hope for South Africa’s economy and thus the professionals are leaving South Africa at an alarming rate. It might be too late for us? But we can definitely save our future by educating the next generation.

Cutting and stuffing the brick

God put us on Earth to care for it, every individual has the potential to make a difference, help us make a difference in the world.

We have the passion to be the best and to give the world a better generation. We want to create a multi-language school, not just to get the children business ready but also to get the children in an environment where they are exposed and respectful to different cultures.

“If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart.” ~ Nelson Mandela

So to get the ball rolling we need your help.

Thank you for taking the time to read the full description, as an added bonus for you… the top 4 cumulative donors at the end of the campaign will get to name the first 4 classrooms built.

Hey everybody! To be honest I have forgotten about this campaign. So just a quick update; We got the ball rolling with the purchase of the land. We also have 2 completed Zulu huts on the premises with the wooden jungle gym planted and fixed. The metal 'jungle gyms' are. . . . .
