ACDT unveils first booklet for 2024

The African Child Development Trust (ACDT) has announced the printing of the first booklets of its 2024 education project. This initiative aims to provide free educational materials for pre-primary to grade three learners in Namibia. The booklets will be available in Republikein street sale newspapers and all Namibian Sun newspapers. Pre-primary booklets will also be delivered to 30 000 children in over 500 schools across Namibia.In a significant move to promote inclusivity, the pre-primary booklets will be available in nine languages - English, Afrikaans, Oshikwanyama, Oshindonga, Otjiherero, Khoekhoegowab, Silozi, Thimbukushu and Rumanyo – while those for grades one to three will be available in English. Each booklet will contain six weeks worth of content based on the Namibian curriculum from the National Institute for Education Development (NIED). A total of six booklets will be distributed per grade, covering all 36 weeks of the curriculum. The ACDT has already made significant strides in this project, having printed and distributed over 15 million booklets to over 360 000 children across Namibia. This has been made possible through the support of partners such as Newsprint Namibia and Logistics Hub Namibia, who drive over 11 000 kilometres daily to reach all 14 regions of the country. In addition to the printed materials, online learning materials and videos are available at zoshy.online. Daily video lessons are also broadcast on NTV on weekdays from 09:30 to 11:30 (DStv channel 285 and GoTV channel 25). In a statement, the ACDT extended its gratitude to its partners and sponsors - including the Capricorn Foundation, First National Bank, Powerline Africa and Allan & Gill Gray Philanthropies - for their “generous donations and continuous involvement in the project”.
