Next Chapter Jozi collects 2,500 books for under-resourced schools
Story 1
The Next Chapter Jozi literacy initiative has collected 2,500 books to support under-resourced schools in the Johannesburg inner- city.
The project was founded by St John’s learner Jenovic Lumu, whose own schooling experience exposed him to the challenges faced by schools with limited access to functional resources and adequate learning materials.
Lumu and his co-learners created a platform to address gaps in educational resources, with a focus on functional libraries, literacy and introducing younger learners to STEM subjects.
The initiative has come full circle through its partnership with Berea Primary School, where the team runs reading and STEM sessions and plans to donate a large collection of quality, age-appropriate books.
