Help our education team visit more underprivileged communities, sign up for a MyPlanet card today.

The Ann van Dyk Cheetah Centre has run an Education Outreach Programme since 2003. The objective has been to visit disadvantaged communities with an Ambassador Cheetah and to educate children and young adults about the need to take care of Animals and the Environment.  In 2010 CHEETA was registered as a Section 18A Non Profit Organisation and works extensively in underprivileged communities.  The Programme consists of various talks at different levels, supported by PowerPoint presentations, experiential learning exercises, and several learning aids in the form of posters and work sheets. There is a workbook for teachers, which encourages them to use the lessons learned as the basis of other learning in the school curriculum - and also results in a more optimistic outlook amongst the teachers.  To date over 100 000 children have benefited from the programme.

CHEETA offers a range of Educational Initiatives, and the focus is on programmes and learning outcomes that are more sustainable for children in disadvantaged communities.  

The idea is to use the Cheetah as a symbol of survival and sustainability and to teach young people about overcoming challenges and being catalysts in their communities for the preservation of natural resources and the improvement of their own lives.
