Dear Golden Future Volunteers,
I hope you've all been doing well and getting into the swing of the last term!
This is a brief reminder of our Saturday tutoring sessions.
We are getting about 100 children from Matthew Goniwe High School for the last few weeks, and although we've managed to cope, we'd be grateful for a lot more help - which would be a lot more beneficial for the learners.
In particular we are needing a few more Accounting tutors, and help with Grade 8 and 9 math (or dealing with the grade 8s and 9s in general - they are a more unruly bunch than the older grades...).
If you can come through on Saturdays, help would be most appreciated.
If you know of anyone who might also be interested in volunteer sessions of this kind, please do bring/send them along :)
Our venues are now in HOERIE Quaggo again, 3A, 3B and 6A.
Time: from 10:00 to 12:00 and hot dogs afterwards (we do go over time quite often, but you are definitely not obliged to stay! - Saturdays are precious and we are already grateful for your 2 hours!).
Looking forward to seeing you on Sat!

Welcome back!
Dear all Golden Future Volunteers,
Welcome back!
I hope you have all had a good break, and any trauma of the last semester forgotten!
High schools have been open for about a month now, and the learners are missing us, so, due to demand, Golden Future would to get tutoring again, starting on 06-August-2011, The last session should be on 22 October, when lectures end, unless there is more demand from learners and some tutors choose to continue past that date.
Please indicate on this googledoc which days you will be able to attend:

Sabelo and I visited Usasazo Secondary School last Thursday to give the teachers the information that we will be staring on 6 Aug. They know we love them, and posters are up at the school, so i'm expecting at least 20 kids to begin with again.
Venue is at ARTS 215 and ARTS 2, I haven't seen the venues yet but trust they are tut rooms that will suffice.
Time is 10:00-12:00, and hot dogs will be at the ready for the hungry.
We will be planning a social for all tutors and students at the end of the year, and will need to hold an AGM in the next two months. These details will be hashed out at the next committee meeting, and I'll let you know the details once we have them set.
In the mean time, do think about applying for committee positions if you'd like to be even more involved with GF, and help us improve on what we do :)
See you on Saturday!
