Advanced Teacher Training Complete

We were pleased to have so many enthusiastic teachers present for the final training session held on the 13th August 2008 at Oranjekloof Primary. They were all presented with their training material.

Teachers receiving their Ka-Ching! School's Programmes

Midge Hilton-Green, the recently retired Bishops Preparatory School headmaster, was also present to explain the workings of the new Ka-Ching! Traders programme. He developed this school's company trading programme while headmaster at Kingswood Prep in the 1980's. It was this course that was instrumental in the South African Department of Education's decision to introduce Economic and Management Sciences (EMS) into the curriculum. It has been used successfully on many young entrepreneurs in his schools since then.

We look forward to working with the Sentinel Primary children, families and the leaders of the school.

Without the passion of the extraordinary teachers from the Hout Bay schools, and the support of the Ackerman Pick 'n Pay Foundation, this project would never have got off the ground.

We look forward to the exciting time ahead and thank all the teachers for their passion and enthusiasm.

Chat soon,
Greg
