Simoonga Thandizani Trust School
Simoonga Thandizani Trust was set up in 2010. The school is a charity entity whose sole existence depends on volunteers and the donor community at large. The school has expanded in size over the years and now runs from preschool to grade 7-with an enrollment of 380 pupils.
The school provides free education, including lunch from Monday to Friday to all the pupils. The pupils who belong to the school are from Simoonga Village and the surrounding communities. Most of the children who learn at Simoonga Thandizani Trust School come from poor homes, since their parents are either unemployed or if employed, they do not earn enough money to support their families.
The school is looking for volunteers who are interested in teaching, environment care, health and nutrition, sports, computer and internet, art (fine and performing). Simoonga Thandizani Trust School is keen on having volunteers with a variety of skills and experiences that they can give and share with the school.
