Margate Good News Centre

One of the main activities that takes place at the Margate Good News Centre is the crèche. We opened its doors in 2009. COPT raised funds to build crèche rooms, suitable toilets, jungle gyms and accommodation for the teachers of the crèche. Under privileged children from the Masineng informal settlement are collected by taxi and sponsored to attend the crèche each day.

The centre has also arranged crèche upgrades with the local poorer crèches and helped improve the general hygiene of the crèches in the area. The centre has offered computer classes, taught how to grow food gardens and given extra lessons to school children. On Fridays they run a kingdom youth group, they run Sunday School and arrange fun beach days and movie nights for the children. The Margate Good News Centre is a safe haven for many children and youth in the area.
