success in life - for youth, by youth
NEMATO CHANGE A LIFE
year by year 2026
coffee training
The Royal St Andrews Hotel organised coffee training for eight of our members. First a day long training by Ciro in Gqeberha, followed by weekend practicals at the hotel.
injection moulder
Thanks to a generous donation we were able to add this injection moulder to our plastic shredder. Now we can make now products out of recycled plastic. The first product is a cellphone stand
Nemato on show (March/April)
We showcased our businesses at the Bathurst Agricultural Show and the Port Alfred Carnival. We used our trampoline, fencing demonstrations, and Manase’s snake to attract visitors.
kitchen upgrade
We’ve upgraded our kitchen. Last year, we moved the workshop to Room 13 and received a donated stainless steel kitchen table. Now the kitchen is tiled. A big improvement in hygiene!
Amplify After School Symposium (25-26 February)
We went to Cape Town to the Amplify After School Symposium by The Learning Trust and picked up lots of new ideas and contacts. Inspired by the symposium we formed a collective of six local after-school organisations so that we can stand stronger together.
website
With the help of DeepSeek, we’ve redesigned this website using the latest technology. It not only looks modern, but also offers a user-friendly photo gallery and adjusts to different screen sizes, so it works well on both large computer screens and mobile phones.
trailer
With the help of donations we were able to buy a trailer. It's a very strong galvanised locally built trailer. It's a big step forward for our recycling and it helps in many other ways like taking luggage to retreats, moving our equipment and it's even helping other organisations like Rotary to hand out water-rollers to the community.
retreats
Holiday retreats remain a key element of our programme. If you don't deal with the past, you can't focus on the future.
