Transforming South Africa, one girl at a time.
Our name, 'molo mhlaba' , is derived from the first computer code written in University Computer Science degree program which is ‘Hello Earth/World’ and is an apt translation for our STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and design, and maths) focus as a network. Moreover, we aim to show African children the possibilities that exist so they can embrace their world.
Our story
Our story
Founded in 2018 as Khayelitsha's first and only girls only school, molo mhlaba is pioneering a new model of education for South African children living in urban townships.
By operating the first same sex network of Montessori-inspired STEAM schools in under served communities, we are pioneering a model of education that provides quality outcomes at an affordable price.
OUR PILLARS
By naming our classrooms after African female leaders, we elevate often hidden stories of achievement.
Nurturing leaders who will pioneer African solutions to African problems through critical thinking.
Transforming townships into thriving towns by celebrating “firsts” in underserved communities.
Providing children with safe spaces to explore, be vulnerable, and build resilience for the future.
Our values-based approach to education strengthens and builds character for future generations while mending the frail social ties that unites our UBUNTU.
