The First Week
The boxes in the classrooms have been filling up and the girls are getting excited! We have had quite a few offers of help and materials - a newsletter update will be sent out soon to fill you in on progress that is being made.
The Starting Point
Each year our girls are provided with the opportunity to make a difference in someone’s life. This year a small crèche with 20 to 30 children, aged between 6 months and 5 years, has been chosen. Langelihle Crèche is part of an upliftment programme run by the Pinetown Methodist Church. The crèche was started last year by Mavis, a resident in Hammarsdale, who saw a need for someone to look after the many small children during the day. As it is small, the girls will be able to make a real difference and they can easily relate to the small children.
