During the month February, we celebrated the academic achievements of our learners and also invited prospective learners to join in the fun. IkamvaYouth branches across the country hosted their annual Open Day events! These events provided a fantastic opportunity for prospective learners to learn more about the IkamvaYouth programme and how it can empower them to reach their full potential.
A highlight of the Open Day events was the celebration of our 2024 cohort's outstanding achievements. We were delighted to recognise and reward our top-performing learners with prizes, acknowledging their hard work.
We would like to extend our sincerest gratitude to all our stakeholders, including our donors, partners, volunteers, and staff, for their invaluable support and collaboration. Your contributions have been instrumental in making our Open Day events a success, and with your support, we look forward to a stellar year ahead.
Our IkamvaYouth Joza branch in the Eastern Cape recently hosted an successful orientation day in Makhanda. The event served as an essential platform for educating learners and tutors about the core values and code of conduct that underpin our organisation.
As an organisation committed to providing a safe and supportive learning environment, we recognise the importance of ensuring that all stakeholders are aware of and adhere to our Child Protection Policy. The orientation day provided an opportunity for learners and tutors to gain a deeper understanding of this critical policy and their roles in upholding it.
By promoting a culture of respect, accountability, and transparency, we aim to create an environment that fosters academic excellence, personal growth, and social responsibility.
At IkamvaYouth, we believe that empowering our tutors is key to empowering our learners. Our Western Cape branches hosted a comprehensive tutor training session for both current and new tutors in the region.
The training focused on equipping our tutors with the essential skills and knowledge needed to guide our learners effectively. Our expert facilitators led interactive sessions, providing valuable insights and practical tips on how to create a supportive and inclusive learning environment.
We would like to extend our sincerest gratitude to all our facilitators and tutors who dedicated their time and energy to making this training a success.
Your commitment to empowering our learners is truly appreciated!
Tutors from our IkamvaYouth Ebony and Ivory Park branches in Gauteng attended an exciting Coding and Robotics workshop. This invaluable experience, made possible by our partners at MANCOSA, equipped our tutors with essential digital skills to enhance their teaching methods and expand learning opportunities for our learners.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to MANCOSA for this fantastic learning opportunity. Together, we're shaping the future of education and empowering our young minds.
