More about The Sustainability Institute

Our children and youth education programmes support underprivileged learners from the Lynedoch Valley with access to holistic academic and personal development. We have a Montessori creche and primary school on-site, as well as an after school youth programme. Our Dream Space for young adults and youth in transition all focus on creating better and just futures for these children and youth, by providing access to the best possible education while also taking into consideration social needs such as healthy meals, transport and socio-emotional support. Our Dream Space assists high school youth to prepare for life beyond school and to provide them with a host of opportunities for work and study, while building soft skills and self-confidence. We also help ‘youth in transition’ that have completed school and wish to enter the job market, to compile CVs and approach potential employers.
