The new premises will improve the centre’s accessibility, while providing a larger exhibition floor and economical rent for the local NPO,”said Potgieter.
Since its establishment in 2002 the centre has served more than one million pupils, educators and parents through various activities offered at its physical premises and through the mobile community programmes.
