Reading Program
Teaching a child to read is a gift for life. Our reading program uses local tutors to teach the fundamentals of reading to Grade 1 and Grade 2 children.
Research shows that the environment in which the pupils learn is critical. For this reason we built two Reading Rooms in the grounds of Yapak Elementary school. Every day we provide a series of 30-minute reading tutorials for small groups of Grade 1 / Grade 2 pupils.
The results have been amazing with over 200 pupils being taught this year alone. The program is seen as a great success.
