Tami from Hlalisekani Playgroup

Loading player...
This morning on Hot Cares we are revisiting the Hlalisekani Playgroup, which is a stones throw away from Hot House.

Hot Cares together with various partners has been assisting Tami and her team at the Hlalisekani playgroup in Kya Sands since November 2017.
The crèche’ has over 135 children who are looked after by Tami and her team.
The majority of the children come from a home where the parents are unemployed so are not able to charge any fees and rely completely on donations.
The Creche was initially a small open area with no proper shelter for the children, no water or electricity, a few tables and chairs and a very small basic vegetable garden to help with food for the children.
The teachers give of their time and do odd things like recycling or selling vegetables to buy food for themselves and the children.
Through great support from various partners, we are slowly but surely making a meaningful difference in the children’s lives and the teachers lives
