Napier Over Ed Centre
Over Ed Centre was founded by resourceful & caring Napier residents that understands the value and contribution youth has in our society. The Over Ed annual concert is a highlight in the Napier community, giving the children a chance to be centre stage. Children that partake in the holiday programme and pantomime can participate in a full stage production.
The Over Ed Centre is abuzz with activity with children coming and going to get sustenance through the kitchen or emotional support and acceptance which is often lacking in their home environments. Children are empowered through skills development and training for job placement.
The Over Ed Centre has various projects to raise much needed funding, like the Charity Shop for the kitchen fund and the handmade goods that go to market. For high school students there is a study room at the centre and internet, the centre offers teen mentorship, which is often overlooked as a time where guidance is most needed.
You too can support this fantastic initiative by donating to the Over Ed Centre, Nedbank Account 2011 498449, Branch 198765 [PBO Exemption Number 930/070/346]
Struisbaai Vaardigheids Skool
Die Struisbaai samewerkende skool (collaboration school) projek is ‘n gesamentlike projek van die Wes Kaap Onderwys departement (WKOD) en die Struisbaai SOS Funding Trust. Dit behels die uitbreiding van Struisbaai Primêr met ‘n vaardigheidsafdeling. Die doel van die projek is om tieners toe te rus met bemarkbare vaardighede in lyn met die behoeftes van die plaaslike ekonomie. Tans bied die skool twee tegniese vakke: Siviele onderhoud (Sweis- en metaalwerk, houtwerk, loodgietery, elektriese werk, glaswerk, teëlwerk, bouwerk, motorwerktuigkunde) en voedselproduksie met ‘n sterk fokus op die gasvryheid sektor.
Die projek spreek die hoë uitval syfer van leerders uit skole aan. 80% van leerders wat graad een in Struisbaai Primêr tussen 2002 en 2006 betree het, het skool verlaat sonder om vir matriek in te skryf. Hierdie projek skep, met die ontwikkeling van toepaslike vaardighede, moontlikhede tot indiensneming en selfs geleentheid tot entrepreneurskap vir hierdie jong mense.
Die konstruksie koste van die gebou beloop R32,7miljoen. Die bedrag sluit alle toebehore, toerusting en gebou-inhoud in. Die Struisbaai SOS Funding Trust het ’n ooreenkoms met die WKOD geteken waarvolgens die trust 60% van hierdie koste dra, terwyl die WKOD 40% daarvan voorsien.
Van hierdie bedrag kort die trust tans nog net R1,4miljoen. Baie dankie aan Chas Everitt en ons ander borge. Kontak ons gerus om ‘n bydrae te maak.

Struisbaai Kids
Struisbaai Omgee Groep se doel is om die kinders van Struisbaai-Noord besig te hou met verskillende aktiwiteite waarin hulle hulle omgewing beter leer ken en so ook hulle self te vind en diegene rondom hulle te respekteer en altyd 'n positiewe impak sal maak en hê.
Omdat ons dorpie so min aktiwiteite het en ons kinders op 'n vroeë ouderdom met dwelms en drank kennis maak, is dit ons hartsbegeerte om hulle van dit te weerhou deur hulle besig te hou soveel moontlik en met al die krag wat God ons sal bied.
Ons programme beloop altyd om en by 80 tot 100 kinders afhangende van die dag of se program.. Maar ons bereken altyd op ons hoogste getal sodoende is ons seker elke mondjie kan roer en hulle maggies is vol, baie keer die enigste maaltyd wat hul vir daardie hele dag sal kry! Ons is afhanklik van skenkings uit ons dorp en is diep dankbaar vir alle donasies, voedsel, groot of klein wat ons ontvang.
Benodighede op ons lys is soos volg:
Pap, melk, brood, vrugte, aanmaakkoeldrank, pasta, botter, konfyt, grondboontjiebotter, droë sopbestandele, rys, suiker, maalvleis, hoender, herwinbare koppies en borde, Bees vleis, kaas, olie, aartappels, groente, blikkies kos en vis.
Hierdie is maar 'n kort lysie van kos benodighede, maar ons vertrou altyd dat GOD in ons skenkers se harte werk.
