OVERVIEW
Centriq has dedicated to transforming children’s lives especially at the ‘grass roots’ level. Since 2009, Centriq has partnered with Play with a Purpose Educational Trust t/a Preschools 4 Africa – a well-established NPO – with a focus on children’s education; more specifically early childhood development and the support of their practitioners. Via this partnership, Centriq has adopted a number of preschools – Thembelihle Day Centre in Orange Farm; Kopano Day Care in Zandspruit; Ethandweni Preschool in Cosmo City, Salvation Day Care in Tshepisong. Additionally Centriq has sponsored a teacher training programme through Preschools 4 Africa for preschools in Braamfischerville, Orange Farm, Tshepisong, Zandspruit, and Cosmo City. With the extra support, care and nurturing, these schools can now stand on their own feet and we can begin fulfilling the much-needed objectives of a new area.
We can and will change this country – one school and one child at a time.
