Education through theatre comes to Alex

The programme aims to empower Grade 12 learners and ensure they try to maximise learning time lost during Covid-19.

Alexandra High School will host the African Child Foundation on April 22 as it rolls out a flagship theatre-based programme into the classroom to enhance learning that was severely impacted by the advent of the Covid-19 pandemic.

The programme aims to empower Grade 12 learners and ensure they try to maximise learning time lost during Covid-19 which will never be recovered. Known as the Easy Learning programme, it performs prescribed texts for 2022 through the ‘My Children, My Africa’ theatre instruction to enhance comprehension.

The roll-out of the educational programme is sponsored by the Department of Sports, Arts, Culture and Recreation’s Mzansi Golden Economy initiative and will be rolled out this April to schools in Alexandra, Soweto and Thembisa in Gauteng and Moletji in Limpopo.

The foundation is a 100% black female-owned NPO and has since pioneered the productions in the Capricorn District in Polokwane, Limpopo, which attracted an average of 20 high schools and more than 200 learners attending, said foundation founder Keneiloe Mabotja.
