Project ongoing. Management committee to evaluate schools that were identified for the program. Once results are received training of teachers will commence. Roll out will start in January 2009 after summer holidays.

Good day,
Bellville Rotary club experienced some difficulties in finding the right schools to roll out the program. The initial schools identified as previously disadvantaged schools were visited and evaluated. This was done to ensure that our money are well spent. As it turned out most of these schools are not managed very well. The Bellville Club than turned to the Western Cape Department of Education to help us find schools for the project. A meeting was held and 25 Principles of Schools attended. I am glad to announce that we managed to find suitable schools and that the project can now move forward again. We have placed our first order for books with the publishers. The teachers orientation on implimenting the "Literacy for All" program will take place after the Easter holidays when we will roll out the first phase. Will keep you posted

The project has been rolled out to 3 schools in the informal settlement of WALACEDENE,one school in Breede River, Robertson and another at the Protea Primary school in Nieuwoudsville.We have reached 1477 learners from grade 1 to grade 3. This program was rolled in out February 2009. A visit payed to the schools recently showed that grade 2 kids can read books of grade3 kids. A much surprised spin off was that the kids took the work books home and some of the parents/grant parents can now read some words and write their names! The schools are going to put together a concert for the Rotary club to show appreciation for what they have done to give hope to the future of these kids.

An error occured when I used the website MG number instead of the registered number with TRF. I corrected it by sending an email to all concerned,however it seems that there is still confusion about the project number. I submitted the final report again with the correct Match Grant number. The correct number for the LITERACY FOR ALL PROJECT, D9350 South Africa is MG 086624
Hope to receive a Closure Letter soon
Regards
