SUSTIANABLE PROJECTS

We have established the following sustainable projects as a result of our learners’ successful skills development: A tea garden was established from the potential seen in our disabled learners’ consumer studies. Our learners, under supervision, assist in the preparation of refreshments, taking of orders and serving of guests. They also clear the tables and assist with washing the dishes, tidying the area etc. The tea garden is open specific Fridays from 09:30 to 11:30, to confirm dates and to book please contact jeannes@almaschool.co.za Products made by our learners in the Arts & Crafts class can be bought when visiting the school in the classes, contact Magda du Preez: Magdadp@almaschool.co.za Nursery in the Agricultural skills class.
