STAFF REPORTER
The African Child Development Trust’s (ACDT) second semester delivery of educational booklets has kicked off. The important initiative targets pre-primary and grades one, two and three, and thus supports the educational journey of young learners all over Namibia. This year, a total of 180 000 booklets have already been distributed, with another 180 000 waiting to find an owner.

Parents, teachers and children can get their monthly booklet in the Republikein or Namibian Sun newspapers when they buy it from a street vendor.

Pre-primary children receive their books directly from their schools, thus ensuring accessibility and convenience. The booklets are available in eight languages - Afrikaans, English, Khoekhoegowab, Oshikwanyama, Oshindonga, Otjiherero, Rumanyo and Rukwangali - ??to meet the extensive language needs of learners.

Learners also have access to all materials along with online classes via zoshy.online. All booklets are available to download for free in 11 languages ??and online lessons are available in English and Namibian Sign Language.

ACDT's distribution of the booklets spans all 14 regions of the country and is in line with the trust’s commitment to bring quality education to every corner of the country. The project is made possible thanks to the generous support of the sponsors and partners First National Bank Namibia, Capricorn Foundation, Powerline Africa, Allan & Gill Gray Foundation, Ministry of Education, Arts and Culture, Logistics Hub Namibia, Print Media Hub, Synergi and Network Media Hub.
