Our programs
We thrive in assisting learners, and Adults to make sense of science that shapes our lives and triggers the spark that ignites the young minds to love and want to study Mathematics, Science, and Technology. The need to inspire young minds to change the world through science has never been stronger. TechnoAfrika support schools and the community through the following programs:
1. mOBILE SCIENCE lab
WHAT IS THIS INTERVENTION?
This program is TechnoAfrika Discovery Centre on wheels! We use this program to bring Science and Technology to our schools. The Program offers three main activities; Hands-on Science Practical Support, Science Shows and Robotics and Coding Support.
WHY THIS INTERVENTION MATTERS
About 92% of our schools does not have Science Labs, few have ICT Labs and Technology Workshops and about 8% has Robotics. Makerspaces. TechnoAfrika helps in bridging this gap by providing interactive and hands-on Science. Our goal is to inspire and ignite a love for Science in our Learners, through engaging, exciting and fun activities and learning experience. We believe that the Mobile Science Centre is the most cost-effective intervention of reaching out to learners, teachers and schools.
WHO IS OUR TARGET AUDIENCE OR BENEFICIARY?
Primary School learners and Secondary School Learners and Teachers. We have activities that are suitable for Children and Adults. to
WHAT IS THIS INTERVENTION?
This is an Intervention to support the Network of STEM Clubs and Robotics Clubs in Middelburg and in Nkangala District. We help in the establishment of After School STEM or Robotics and Supporting them with resources as well as training and Mentoring to ensure success.
WHY THIS INTERVENTION MATTERS?
There is a great need to prepare our children into future Stem careers and STEM Technocrats, Problem solvers, Engineers and critical thinkers and researchers through practical- oriented environments, STEM clubs in schools or educational institutes are a great answer to close this gap. These are vital innovation hubs to supplement what they learn in schools, skills that bridge the gap between school and industry and real life. Our Program's role is assisting in the establishments of these Clubs and assist also in the capacitating of the hubs and providing training to coaches, mentors and leaders of these STEM Clubs.
WHO IS THE TARGET AUDIENCE OR BENEFICIARY
This After-School Initiative is for children grade 4 - 10
3. ROBOTICS TO SCHOOLS
WHAT IS THIS INTERVENTION?
This program is about taking Robotics and Coding to Schools. We use this program to introduce the basics of Robotics and coding to Learners and Teachers. We use LEGO Robotics, Scratch and Micro:bit based Robotics.
WHY THIS INTERVENTION MATTERS
About 92% of our Schools do not have Robotics and coding Makerspaces. TechnoAfrika helps in bridging this gap by assisting schools in getting Robotics Resources and Developing schools towards Robotics and coding and 4IR. We want to help our schools to prepare for the New Robotics and Coding curriculum set for 2026. This intervention is set to complement, support and demystify these subjects for both teachers, learners and the community. We want our schools build confidence in the New Curriculum and build 21st century STEM critical skills.
WHO IS OUR TARGET AUDIENCE OR BENEFICIARY?
Primary School learners from grade R - 7 and Secondary School Learners and Teachers from Grade 8 - 10.
WHAT IS THIS INTERVENTION?
TechnoAfrika Discovery Centre proudly host the Apprentice Engineer. It is a 4 day intense training Boot-Camp program where young and aspiring Engineers, Technologists and Scientists from Grade 6 to Grade 11 Embark on a transformative journey on Science, Engineering, Technology, Leadership and Robotics. The course is divided into categories Junior Apprentice Engineer - Grade 6 - 7 and Senior Apprentice Engineer (Grade 8 - 11.
WHY THIS INTERVENTION MATTERS?
There is a great shortage of passionate and innovative STEM TechnoCrats, and Critical skills in Afrika, hence a great need to prepare our children into future STEM careers and STEM Technocrats, Problem solvers, Engineers and critical thinkers and researchers through practical-oriented environment, This program is designed to provide a great exposure to practical Engineering, Science and Robotics. Our focus is for our children to embrace future Engineering Solutions for our African problems. Our focus this year is on Solutions on Energy Scarcity, Energy is the driver of the economy, Sustainable Renewable energy, energy storage and usage. Children will be taught about the future of engineering solutions. They will research and develop their own solutions, and demonstrate how they though prototype how they will solve and use their solutions.
WHO IS THE TARGET AUDIENCE OR BENEFICIARY
The program is for Grade 6 to Grade 11. The Junior Apprentice Engineer - Grade 6 - 7, The Senior Apprentice Engineer - Grade 8 - 11.
