Ncinci Ones Montessori is the 2nd Montessori pre-school project I have started in the rural Transkei, Eastern Cape. (The 1st is the well-known Ikhaya Labantwana Montessori). Ncinci One's Montessori was able to start with the support of Stichting Obonto and Actie Adoptie. We opened in April 2016 and accommodated the maximum of 14 young, rural Xhosa children, in our 5.5m rondawel.

By February 2017, the waiting list of children was at 28! With great thanks to the Kavmvalethu Foundation, Stichting Obonto and a few other donors, we built a nice, big hexagon inter-leading into our 'old' rondawel.

Our new spacious environment allows us now to provide 30 young, Xhosa children with a solid Montessori foundation, 2 nutritious meals per day, a daily calcium supplement and 3 day de-worming twice a year.

Our project runs off the support, kindness and charity of others. If you would like to find out how you can help, please feel free to contact me.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Enkosi! (Thank you)
