VI. The Core activities at Savvy Brain Academy:
• Offering Pre and Primary education:
We teach children daily at our school according to the Tanzania curriculum. Children we help at our school learn according to their ages and are divided into different groups in accordance with the education policy of our country, Tanzania. We run a kindergarten program and primary education on a daily basis following the Government school year plan. The main subjects we teach are English (reading and writing), Kiswahili (reading and writing), Mathematics, Healthcare and environment and Sports and Arts.
• Most Vulnerable Children’s Care:
The main reason of the existence of Savvy Brain Academy is to give hope to the needy children (i.e orphans, HIV/AIDS victims, abandoned, disabled and other vulnerable) living in poverty to have access to education, nutrition, medical support, shelter and care so that they may fulfill their dreams and live a decent life in future. These are children who face any form of hardship, violence and are hopeless for a better future. In partnership with the Social Welfare Office and various Non-Governmental Organizations helping children in different parts of Mwanza region of Tanzania where we operate, we select, visit and analyze the children in need of help and enroll them at our school and study free of charge. At our school, we provide them with education on daily basis following our Tanzania curriculum, food, medical care when they get sick, counseling, prayers and on weekends or holidays we do home visit. As the school still struggle to stand very well on its own feet financially and as the number of kids in needy increase daily, we have then dedicated our time to look for kids’ sponsors, donations or contributions from different part of the world to help us covering the needs of these children in their access to education on top of the little support we give them.
