Education through indigenous knowledge

Our first priest arrived in South Africa in 1934 and was stationed at Inchanga. Ntshongweni was one of the 15 outstations he visited on horseback because that was the only means of transport to those various outstations, around the outskirts of the Valley of Thousand Hills. Before he came here Fr Pfister visited some of these places, and had gathered converts who held their services in Mr & Mrs Khwela’s home.

Education through indigenous knowledge

An important aspect of this programme is using the indigenous knowledge collected to provide educational products for schools and students in Durban and KwaZulu-Natal. This could include developing lesson plans, setting school projects or making material available to download.

At the moment we are focusing on collecting and developing content for the indigenous knowledge Wiki - we welcome input from interested organisations or individuals on possible ways the education section could be further developed.
