The Shine Centre
Bringing literacy and language enrichment to school children with reading difficulties
The Shine Centre stands for Support and Help In Education. We are located at Observatory Junior School in Cape Town which is an inner city school. Shine Centres are established in carefully selected schools where 99% of the children are historically or economically disadvantaged. Our aim is to ensure that they reach their full potential and receive support in language and literacy.
We do this by encouraging local people and businesses from the community to partner their local school in providing struggling learners with weekly support lessons. In the future we aim to add numeracy to our programme.
