Edu Fun

We are a volunteer led organisation and our mission is to improve English literacy for grade 2 and 3 students at DCS. English literacy is essential for the young learners at DCS to break the cycle of poverty. We also mend school uniforms, do health checks for students and provide support and financial assistance for learners from Diepsloot going on to University. In addition, Edu Fun is evolving to include students from non-fee paying schools in rural, urban and informal settlements outside of Diepsloot to address the varied educational, literacy and material needs of the population. We utilise the Phono-Graphix method, a straightforward reading and spelling method developed in America in 1993. The method teaches that letters are pictures of sounds, sounds can be represented by more than one letter or combinations of letters and that combinations of letters can also represent multiple sounds. Edu Fun volunteers are invited to attend Phono-Graphix training sessions throughout the year ...
