SHEC
Center is where a place “where every child shines”. We are committed to
empowering and developing pre-school children. We believe that every child
deserves a safe space where they can learn and grow, and we are dedicated to
creating such an environment. With our focus on holistic health and education,
we aspire to help these children reach their full potential. Our ultimate goal
is to ensure that all of our grade R graduates are fully equipped to take on
the challenges of primary school. Through our work, we strive to make a
positive impact on the communities we serve by addressing complex social
issues.
Access
to education for young children in South Africa is significantly influenced by
the socio-economic status of their households, with those from poorer
backgrounds being less likely to participate in educational activities. SHEC Center’s
early childhood development centres (ECDs) in Hillbrow, Johannesburg, aim to
counteract this by providing access to quality education and developmental
support for children aged one year to six years from impoverished,
overpopulated inner-city communities.
Through a comprehensive curriculum and a range of supportive services, these ECDs strive to ensure that all children, regardless of their socio-economic background, have the opportunity to achieve their developmental milestones and have a strong foundation for their future education.
