directly linked to a central control room.
Although this system has been in operation for a
while, it is the first one of its kind to be used at a
school and has proved to be highly effective. We
view this as a long term solution that will bolster
the safety and security of our students, staff
and parents.
There are strict procedures and protocols that
need to be adhered to during this time and we
request that our parents be co-operative when
entering the college.
Welcome to Grade 1C Zenzele Khumalo
The Santa Shoebox Project is a nationwide charity drive that encourages the public to donate a personalised gift
to an underprivileged child. Our team of volunteers ensures that YOUR gift is handed to YOUR allocated child.
This year the Ballito satellite is aiming to support 7 crèches, 5 primary schools, 2 secondary schools and a
community development centre!
While we are acutely aware that this has been a tough year for everyone, that finances are tight and that many
of you have already dug generously in your pockets, we are equally conscious of how desperate the needs of the
children we are aiming to support are. Some of the children we are supporting are local, but we are also trying to
reach more rural children who have had very little support this year.
Please help us to bring those children a gift of love.
The Ballito team want to reach 2100 children in our community this year. Every gift counts!
Easy-Peasy!
Go to www.santashoebox.org.za to register and pledge a gift or gifts!
Or download the Santa Shoebox Project APP from the APP store and register and pledge on your mobile! Track
your gift on this simple to use APP!
Select a child by name, gender and age.
Make up the gift!
Each gift to include the EIGHT practical and NEW items:
Toothpaste
Toothbrush
Facecloth
Soap
Sweets
Educational supplies
A toy
An outfit of clothing (e.g. T-shirt and shorts/skirt; please check sizing on gift label)
Drop-off Details:
Dates: Thursday 5 November 12 pm – 4pm; Friday 6 November 8 am – 4 pm;
Saturday 7 November 8am – 2pm
Venue: CURRO Mt Richmore
Please note:
Box lids and bases must be wrapped separately so that box can be opened for checking purposes.
Size of shoebox is an adult running shoebox (no boot boxes). If your label does not have a name on it, it means
that you have you have pledged an 'Extra' shoebox - you are a superhero! Extra shoeboxes are given to children
who have joined the school between when the name lists are submitted and when the children receive their gifts.
Extras are used to ensure that each and every child receives a shoebox - making magic happen! These gifts will
be personalized before being handed over to the recipient. If you have any questions regarding the nature of the
items listed above or about the project, please contact:
