Who are we really?

We are a junior school, catering for the needs of physically disabled children in KwaZulu-Natal. Most of our children come from impoverished, rurally based Zulu speaking homes.  We have about 155 learners of whom all but 8 live in our hostel. Many of our children have diverse disabilities/impairments/barriers viz. cerebral palsy, amputations, genetic syndromes, congenital disorders, post disease disorders, epilepsy, partially sighted, hard of hearing, attention deficits, learning impairments, are trauma victims (violence, fires, accidents, etc), and some have multiple impairments. These are all barriers to daily living as well as learning.
