Enhlanganisweni Primary School Project – SCHOOLWEAR ( Project C )
September 28th, 2017 - 6:32 pm | by Frik
We were so pleased with our visit to Estcourt in Kwazulu-Natal, where we met with Mrs. Sithole the Principle at one of the
schoolwear suppliers for the Enhlanganisweni Primary School.
We negotiated a good deal with the shopkeeper from Vawdas Schoolwear, that allowed us to purchase :
twenty(20) sets of schoolwear uniforms for boys,
twenty(20) sets of schoolwear uniforms for girls,
twenty(20) schoolwear jerseys.
Part of the revenue was from the books and canvases sold at the Giants Castle Nature Reserve shop.
The balance was subsidized by Dolette & Frik van Wyk
Nhlanganisweni Primary School – Jungle Gym Inauguration Ceremony ( Project B )
August 29th, 2016 - 6:29 pm | by Frik
The biggest challenge will be to find a reputable contractor that will be willing to traveling at least five hours from Johannesburg and install the unit in one day at competitive pricing. Our second challenge is one of funds. The number of children that will be playing on the jungle gyms require at least three units. We need at least R 50 000 to finance this project. The revenue from the sales of the canvasses and books at the shop of Giants Castle will finance only part of the project. Sponsorship need to finance the balance.
We have been blessed with four sponsors arising to the occasion that will be financing the shortfall of the project.
On the 26th August 2016 the installation of three Jungle Gyms ( 5m x 7m ) took place at the Enhlanganisweni Primary School at the play area with excited children eyes watching the whole process.
Inauguration Ceremony , Monday 29 August 2016. The excitement at the School is just too much for words.
The personal and the children at the school are overwhelmed with joy . The boys and girl danced Zulu’s traditional dances. God were Praised with a prayer and finally Mrs Sithole addressed all present. She expressed their appreciation and thanked all involved. The completed project was handed over to the School.
Lolly pops and salty snacks were handed to every child( 650 children) in the school. All the handouts were sponsored by private individuals.
Nhlanganisweni Primary School – EDUCATIONAL TOYS ( Project A )
June 28th, 2016 - 1:11 pm | by Frik
A community project for the Enhlanganisweni Primary School was launched in September 2014 by Frik & Dolette van Wyk in conjunction with Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife and Giants Castle Nature Reserve. The project involves the sale of canvas prints of various images captured at Giants Castle bird hide over the past six years by Frik & Dolette.
A hard cover Coffee table book ( 300×300) printed on high quality paper of the Giants Castle birds was added to the project for sale towards the end of November 2014.
The Giant’s Castle portfolio includes photos of the impressive Bearded Vulture (juvenile and fully grown) , Cape Griffon and Jackal Buzzard, to name a few. Giant’s Castle Curio Shop and Frik & Dolette van Wyk will work together to serve the local community through the sale of canvas prints and books of the images from the Giant’s Castle portfolio. The total revenue will go towards funding community projects. All the goods on sale will be sponsored by Frik and Dolette from Eye-nature Photography.
Our first focus is a special project for the Grade R’s and Grade One’s at Enhlanganisweni Primary School. A small sample of Educational toys was delivered to the school on 16 November 2015. Mrs Sithole the school Principal and the Teachers for these children were involved in a discussion with us to establish the children’s needs.
It is a new year, 25 January 2016. We delivered various crates full of educational toys, small play balls, DVD’’s and clothing just to mention a few. The revenue from the sales of the goods at the shop at Giants Castle paid for all the educational toys. Lollypops sponsored, were also shared with every Grade R and Grade One child.
On this day the future possible projects were discussed with Mrs. Sithole and her staff and during this session we set our goal to enhance the children’s play area with the installation of a Jungle gym. ( Project B ). This will contribute to the development of the children which will lift them to the next level.
The biggest challenge will be to find a reputable contractor that will be willing to traveling at least five hours from Johannesburg and install the unit in one day at competitive pricing. Our second challenge is one of funds.
