The Fourth Kiddies Hope Centre’s graduation ceremony was hailed as a great success on November 24 and the learners showcased a number of brilliant performances which was appreciated by the audience.
The day’s activities were started with a one-kilometre march from the Kopanong Community Centre to the Kiddies Hope Day Care centre.
The centre director, Xolani Sithole said, “We had various groups taking part in the march from the EMS cadets, Bernard Isaac Majorettes, Noordgesig Brass band, Eldorado Park Brass band, Bosmont Brass Band, Turupa The Movers Ya Sol Plaatje Cultural Entertainment, Tshepo Themba Private Hospital, the Thandu Xolo Drum Majorettes as well as the JMPD.
“The theme of this year was celebrating careers in aviation because we wanted to expose black children to careers in aviation.”
There were 14 Kiddies Hope Day Care learners who graduated, seven boys and seven girls. He said since their centres were established four years ago, their learners have gained renown for being among the top performers at schools because of the great foundation they received at the centre.
Kiddies Hope Day Care centre learners also paid a tribute to the centre’s recently deceased, director Siphiwe ‘Pio’ Sithole who passed away this year. They also showcased their dancing skills to the audience before 14 of their learners officially graduated.
“We owe our success to the great working relationship we have established with overseas Early Childhood Development Centres (ECDC).

“We also have a soccer team which has recently won the 2018 Sukhumvit Soccer Tournament Cup this year,” said Sithole.
“We are optimistic that this year’s graduates will not drop the ball but continue to be shining stars like their predecessors at the schools where they will be enrolling next year.
“We urge parents to register their learners at our centre from today until December 14. We have an influx of learners wanting to register with us. Registrations for 2019 ends on December 14 this year when we will be officially closing the centre for the holidays,” said Sithole.
