Programs for the children…

Children are taught to discover their strengths, to build and develop their full potential through the 'I care' developmental programs:

  • Victim empowerment

  • Sport and recreation

  • Behaviour management

  • Promotion of children's rights

  • Life skills programs

  • Therapeutic intervention

  • Academic support

  • Independent living

At the end of each month we host a party for the children who celebrated their birthdays during the month, providing a birthday cake and treats.

Excursions are regularly organised to various places e.g. Ostrich Farm, Cango Caves, Crocodile Farm, etc. We have a braai for the children each weekend and show DVDs for their entertainment.
