What is the reason behind your school’s name?

An eagle can always fly high over all clouds and storms and God protects His nest from dangers.

What are you grateful for about your school?

I'm grateful for God’s hand on my ECD Centre. He blessed me with a house in 2008, but I didn't understand why in Delft? In 2012 I had a dream wherein a man in white told me that it's time to open a crèche and so, on 15 Jan. 2014 I started Young Eagles Nest Educare. God blessed the crèche in that same month with everything I needed to start an ECD Centre.

I'm also grateful for the chance to be trained by AmazingBrainz and currently I'm using their excellent curriculum at my crèche. By using this, the children have the opportunity to receive whole brain development so that they are school ready by the age of 6.

We are still open after 8 years and God continues to send new kids to this safe haven for children whose parents are at work. I'm grateful to be a blessing to our community in giving love to and building a brighter future for the next generation. It gives me great pleasure.

What are the most important needs/prayer requests regarding your school right now?

• Thank you for praying for the finances for the carport at the entrance to the crèche to be fixed because of leaking corrugated iron sheets. We got the finances and the carport is fixed.
• The 4–5-year class needs a ceiling urgently, because it is very cold in the winter and the baby class needs a window for more ventilation since it doesn’t get enough fresh air.
• We need sponsors for fresh fruit + vegetables as well as non-perishable food (samp & beans, dry soup mix, tins of baked beans, frozen peas, etc.) for the daily meals we provide for the children.
• Please pray for a small jungle gym for large muscle development of the children.
• We are also in need of more tables, chairs and blankets for the children.
• The building plan needs to get approval – we have been struggling with it for 3 years already. Somehow the building was built wrong by subcontractors and now it's affecting the measurements for the building plan. I don't know what to do to get it approved.
• Please pray for the safety of my preschool - there are many burglaries in our area.
• We need waterproof paint for the building, but I can't afford it.
• We have to pay a fine regarding the rezoning of the land use (R9000). I didn't know I had to rezone every 5 years.
• My bakkie's shock absorber is also done.
