West End Primary launches new literacy room
Plainsman
|June 04, 2025
When Plainsman stepped into the new literacy room at West End Primary School today, Monday June 2, it was a burst of colour - lined with books, learning materials, and filled with wide-eyed, eager smiles.
Non-profit organisation Living Through Learning officially opened the school's new literacy room, a space made possible through funding from Minrath Trust. The room is home to resources that support pupils in developing reading, writing and fine-motor skills.
The founder of Living Through Learning, Sonja Botha, ran an NGO called Education Alive for over 25 years, which was part of an international group. In 2010, she became independent and changed the name to Living Through Learning.
