Principal's story: Charlene
In 1999 I finished off in the catering business. My son was 2 years old and I wanted to do the ECD training so
that I could equip him.
Friends and family approached me and asked me to look after their children and I started a centre in my spare bedroom. Every year I took another room somewhere on the property for my ECD centre. I never advertised my centre, everything was word of mouth. I equipped myself by studying further. There were lots of challenges but I persevered and today Charlene’s Angels are my pride and joy. Just knowing, when you see that child, that you can make a difference in their life keeps me going. Their smiles, childlike nature and compliments just make my day.
How to help:
Volunteer:
We need fundraising champions. Get creative – run a marathon on your front yard, host a virtual high tea, do something amazing and encourage your friends and family to change the world through early learning.
We rely on volunteers to lend a helping hand when teachers are off sick. To work in the classroom you need an up-to-date security check.
Help us get Covid-19 Ready:
We need to meet all health and safety requirements and Covid-19 protocols in order to open our centre to children in September. Our vulnerable children are missing out on wholesome meals and our love and care.
We want to offer our children a safe space where they can learn and thrive. We need your help to make this possible.
