Who would have thought that a mobile health clinic could support childrens education. Through our trailer project we are able to give our children in the rural areas the critical skills for school readiness. When the mobile clinic arrives, we set up a play area from the equipped toy library trailer. We have seen an increase in the number children being vaccinated and checked through this process. Help us create an equal society and eradicate poverty for all.
Due to a shortage of proper early learning development we have children who are starting the formal school system who are not equipped with proper skills to be successful. Research has proven that this could be a direct link to school dropouts.
Cotlands initiates and facilitates innovative, play-based early learning opportunities for young children. Children are provided access to toy library and playgroup programmes aimed at improving school readiness, and health through the medical clinic. The programmes are designed to ignite potential through play by enhancing children's social-emotional development, as well as their cognitive skills which includes creativity, critical thinking and problem solving.
Cotlands early childhood education model provides a scalable, cost-effective and impactful solution to create a more equal and prosperous South Africa.
