In Otavi Susan du Toit (right) built the Koeb school home together with Marianne Sack many years ago and from 2012 they also both ran the joint preschool with steps for children. After Marianne withdrew two years ago, Susan has been running the project alone. However, the two teachers were always Agnes Naibas (left) and Selma Mukuwe at her side. It was therefore only a logical step that one of them is now being trained as her deputy.

Agnes has been working as a preschool teacher since 2012, attended several further training courses at the Amos Meerkat skool and is currently also completing her teaching diploma at the Headstart Montessori Teacher Training College. As her mother died when she was young and no one cared for her anymore, she had to leave school in the 9th grade.

Susan:

„Agnes is a very friendly teacher and loves the children. When a child is struggling she is always willing to take care of it after school and help wherever she can. She is an absolute honest person and I can trust her with the schools money at all times. Agnes is with her whole heart in the project and she is an excellent teacher, although she hasn’t got any postgraduate education!“
