Project Report | Feb 4, 2019
A new year with new possibilities!

By Lynn-Mari Du Plooy | Project leader

We are almost half way through the first term and the learners and teachers at Jamaica Way Primary, Mzamomhle Primary and Zwelihle Primary are hard at work doing their weekly online Maths lessons. A total of 1, 719 leaners and 38 teachers have been registered onto our online platform for 2019 and we will be supporting these schools in various ways to help them achieve in maths.

We are delighted to be able to report that Jamaica Way Primary and Mzamomhle Primary both achieved much improved Grade 6 Maths results in their 2018 external exams. Jamaica Way Primary improved by 17% and Mzamomhle Primary by 30%!! Zwelilhle Primary has also been getting on well and we are excited to see what the year will bring for the school and its learners. This would not have been possible without the dedication of the learners, teachers and school managements of these schools as well as your generous donations.

We love giving you feedback straight from the classroom. Here are some comments from the teachers explaining how the online maths lessons are helping their learners.

“One of the biggest benefits is that every child can participate in the maths lesson.” – Ms Jones, Grade 5 teacher at Mzamomhle Primary,

“It is amazing that teachers can have their results at the click of a button. Now we can work together to solve the problems that we find.” –Ms Williams, Grade 6 teacher at Jamaica Way Primary

Thanks to the donations we have received in 2018 we have decided to look at stretching the impact of the project by adding yet another school the project “Help more South African children achieve in maths.” But more on that later!

Thank you for your generous donations they are helping more and more children in South Africa achieve in Maths and reach their dreams.
