Health, Wellness and Sport

The Mbekweni Youth Centre successfully hosted an Early Childhood Development (ECD) programme for children aged 5–6 years on Thursday, 29 April 2026, in collaboration with Fantastic Daycare, Nomzamo Educare, and Vumazonke Educare.

The programme brought together young learners for a day of structure development-focused activities.

The partnership between the Mbekweni Youth Centre and the participating educare centres demonstrated a shared commitment to strengthening early childhood education within the community. By working collaboratively, these institutions continue to invest in the future of young learners and promote quality ECD practices.
