EENDRACHT PRIMARY SCHOOL

Eendracht Primary School is situated in Pretoria city centre with an enrolment of 743 learners from different cultural and economical backgrounds. Most of the learners come from the city centre where there is minimal natural environment exposed to them, and where there is a great need for recreational - and extra curricular activities.
We have noticed that many environmental - and developmental projects are mainly focused in the townships and rural areas, excluding city children from gaining from the skills and knowledge these projects have to offer .Green Feet's part in this collaboration was to teach children how to make musical instruments from waste material, showing them how we can creatively use this free resource.

EENDRACHT PRIMARY SCHOOL

Through an integrated approach towards Youth Development, the Youth Development Forum (GTZ), Altus Sport, Karos & Kambro and Green Feet strive to inspire children to make responsible choices in their lives, to offer both relief and joy for today and hope for the future, providing the participants with self-confidence, critical thought and other valuable “tools” necessary for an overall healthy journey through life.
This pilot project seeks to present alternative options for combating problems such as teenage pregnancy, drug abuse and cultural intolerance by using the positive impact of sport, performing arts, creative art and environmental education as a way to foster social and human development, and to inspire the youth to actively participate in shaping their community.
