We have 'branched out' into the pre-school education sector by opening a kindergarten for local children in Stanford. Jens and Daniel's dream of running a kindergarten especially for the underprivileged children became a reality.
African Giggles, which is situated 90 minutes away from Cape Town, offers day care and pre-school education using the Montessori methodology to local children from all different backgrounds between the ages of zero and six years. Instruction at the kindergarten is in English although the children – who come from Afrikaans, Xhosa, Zulu, German and English speaking backgrounds – also receive an hour of German language tuition per day.
Cape Studies is currently sponsoring the set up and running costs of the kindergarten for the first year and hopes to attract sponsorship from local and international businesses in the future.
