Each afternoon SOS Africa Education Centres facilitate holistic education programmes which extend far beyond academic support. SOS Africa’s holistic approach to education recognises the importance of the physical, mental and emotional well-being of children and young adults, and understands that the whole person needs to be developed and nurtured for optimal learning to take place.
