Two days of Numicon mathematics training with Operation Upgrade teachers in Plettenberg bay resulted in positive comments such as:-
"Can't wait to implement it" "The training was wonderful ... I would like to have more training" "Gives me ideas how to do maths with children" "Am looking forward to working with Numicon" "If maths was taught this way everybody will like it... an easy way to teach children to understand" "I really enjoyed it, had lots of fun and got nice, new ideas" "I'm proud to be part of the Numicon programme... I will implement everything... you really make me see my job a practitioner in another way" "With Numicon children will enjoy learning maths. They will have a lot of fun, because it is not as tough as the word Numicon sounds" "Numicon rocks!"
KET edu-mentor and Numicon specialist Gail Rossini and edu-assistant Xoliswa Mabukane are thrilled with this great feedback, clearly indicating that the extension of this maths programme is bound to be a great success!

"The children at Humpty Dumpty seem to love Numicon and are enthusiastic about trying each step, moving swiftly through the worksheets. Each visit shows them more confident with the colours, shapes and numbers and anxious to work as quickly as possible for the coveted 'high five'. They are focused and concentrate very well, with two of the girls well out in front and itching to help their friends. The learning by play method seems to be working well." Volunteer Kathryn Jackson

Knysna Education Trust had a great start to 2015. The official beginning of first term for all affiliated preschools was on Wednesday the 21st of January. By the end of January we had presented two principal meetings in both Sedgefield and Knysna. Our Numicon refresher workshop at the beginning of February was well attended with great enthusiasm and imput from our affiliated preschool principals and teachers. We look forward to again hosting monthly informative and fun workshops and training sessions in Knysna and Sedgefield.

"We had such fun at Sunrise last week! 
Nandi asked whether I could assist with the Autumn theme, which I was happy to do. Apart from the usual shapes and colours, I took along baskets full of lovely autumn leaves gathered at Belvidere and Lake Brenton! We pretended we were trees that were dropping their leaves. The children had such a wonderful time!"
Knysna Education Trust is able to support a host of preschool teachers and children as a result of wonderful women like Anne who, once a week, devote their personal time to assist with furthering the education of young children. Volunteers truly are the life blood of the Trust. Thank you to all our wonderful volunteers for making such a wonderful contribution to our children's future!
