“I am certain that a Sewing Machine would relieve as much human suffering as a hundred Lunatic Asylums, and possibly a good deal more.”

— Margaret Atwood

 

Sewing

Our Sewing School has produced some outstanding seamsters and seamstresses over the years. We have produced items that were sold at OR Tambo International Airport, for example. Since the outbreak of covid, we have manufactured over half a million facemasks for various corporate clients. Local entrepreneurs have access to our facilities, at a nominal cost, to service their client base. We are partnering with the FP&MSETA to run sewing learnerships.

In addition to the training, we are ramping up production, in order to continue honing the entrepreneurial skills of our students.
