IISIQHINGI SENJABULO CRECHE AND PRE-SCHOOL WAS ESTABLISHED MAY 1996 BY MRS THULI NENE WHO SAW A NEED FOR SUCH A FACILITY IN THE COMMUNITY. DEVLAND EXT 27 IS THE FIRST RDP HOUSE CREATED BY THE GORVERNMENT FOR PEOPLE WHO USED TO LIVE IN BACKROOMS IN SOWETO AND SURROUNDING AREAS. PARENTS USED TO LEAVE THEIR TODDLERS WITH GRANDPARENTS DURING THE WEEK ONLY VISIT THEM ON FRIDAY EVENING. THULI THEN DECIDED TO OPEN A CRECHE HAVING A TEACHING AND KINDERGARTEN EXPERIENCE. THAT IS HOW ISIQHINGI SENJABULO WAS BORN WITH ONLY 4 KIDS. BY DECEMBER 1996 WE HAD 14 KIDS. THE FOLLOWING YEAR THE NUMBER GREW TO 25, AND NOW WE HAVE 150 KIDS UNDER OUR CARE.
