Project Report | Sep 17, 2026
Real progress. Real impact.

By Esther Cupido | Project Leader

Small steps, big futures.
Small steps, big futures.

Since our June report, Ubunye Educare Centre has continued building on the priorities we identified: literacy, numeracy, school readiness, parent involvement, teacher development, nutrition and a stronger learning environment.

Reading & Literacy

Our Reading Room is now supporting 40 learners with additional reading and homework support. The arrival of 600 books has significantly strengthened access to age-appropriate reading material, giving children more opportunities to practise, explore stories and develop a love of reading.

Parent Engagement

Parent commitment has increased by 70%. This stronger involvement helps extend learning beyond the classroom and strengthens the partnership between families and educators.

Stronger Teachers, Stronger Learning

All four of our teachers received training during this period. Continued professional development helps our educators strengthen classroom practice and provide better support for children's learning and school readiness.

Nutrition that Supports Learning

Nutrition remains central to our programme. Over the three-month period, we served 11,040 meals to our learners. Providing regular meals helps children stay focused, participate in class and learn in a supportive environment.

What Comes Next

We will continue strengthening literacy and numeracy, expanding reading support, involving parents, developing our teachers and improving the resources and environment in which our children learn.

Your Support Creates These Opportunities

These achievements are made possible through the commitment of our staff, families, partners and donors. Every book, training opportunity and meal contributes to a child’s ability to learn, grow and prepare for the next stage of their education.

THANK YOU FOR INVESTING IN OUR CHILDREN.
