Babynastix 

Here is our Babynastix health and safety policies and procedures. We are proactive by ensuring that we will be ready for Babynastix once we are able to return to schools. 

In the meantime we offer online Babynastix classes (on Saturdays to accommodate working parents) which gives parents the opportunity to experience Babynastix with their children and enjoy the bonding time with their little ones. I will send you a link for our FREE class offer for ALL your parents to enjoy a free online class with their little ones if you would be so kind to forward it to them. 

We miss seeing all our beautiful babies every week and look forward to returning to your amazing school when it is safe to do so. 

I hope that you are doing well and keeping safe during this difficult season!

Kind regards 
Suzaan and the Babynastix Cape Town team

​STATEMENT BY DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT
 
Date: 20 May 2020
Release: Immediate  
 
Early Childhood Development and Partial Care Centres to remain closed
 
The provincial Department of Social Development has received confirmation from the National Department that despite the easing of the lockdown, all ECDs must remain closed until further notice.
 
All provincial departments must adhere to the Regulations issued by the Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs, and the Directions issued by National Department of Social Development Minister, Lindiwe Zulu. Minister Zulu has reiterated that all ECDs will remain closed until further notice. This announcement and other information has been communicated by the Department via Social Service Organisations, and the network of ECD forums across the province to the sector.
 
There are currently 1 589 registered ECD facilities in the province, of which we fund more than 80 000 children at 1 124 centres. In addition, we fund 88 after school care facilities.
 
Should there be any further updates to these directions, the information will be immediately shared with the  ECD sector.
 
We encourage all ECD operators to monitor the provincial coronavirus website at coronavirus.westerncape.gov.za and national government’s website at sacoronavirus.co.za where all of the latest developments are posted, online parent support and learning material provided, as well as relief available to residents and businesses.

Dear Principals
 
We hope this email finds you well.
 
We have received many questions regarding the opening of ECD centres and aftercare services from principals and ECD centres. We directed these questions to Tughfa (Director of Early Childhood Development and Partial Care at the Department of Social Development) to provide much-needed answers. After receiving her answers (on Monday, 11 May), we designed a FAQ leaflet (showing our questions and the answers DSD provided). Please see the FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) leaflet attached, and feel free to share amongst your networks.
 
We are concerned that centres may be misinterpreting government directives and we think it is helpful to have these guidelines directly from DSD to provide some clarity. 
 
We also wanted to share with you the process for applying for the Social Relief Grant to share with those that may need it. Please note that this is the new number. The application process opened on Monday.
 

 
Please stay well.
 
Kind regards

Sisanda FunDaytion and Uncle Ross Story Telling

5/8/2020

0 Comments

 
Sisanda FunDaytion (SF) is a 10 year old NGO active in the western cape. SF is focused on ensuring the value of recreation is experienced by all children. Vulnerable children in our townships very rarely get the opportunity to learn, play and grow in different environments, with new people and in new ways. SF has a variety of programmes which, through volunteers, work to help children have a little fun while expanding their minds and horizons. We arrange outings to experience what Cape Town has to offer, set up after school extra mural groups to learn new skills and enable more privileged high school youth to share their time and energy with less privileged primaries school children.

With the changes of our current reality SF is engaging in food distributions, Storytime and developing approaches to enable healthy activities within vulnerable households. 

Please see more about what we do through our website or Facebook
