This event only&nbsp;caters to learners who are in the year (learners who are in their last year at the school).\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lupondo stated that there are retail stores and supermarkets that offer their learners job opportunities. She said they aim to empower young children.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNot all the children are good at academics. Some of them are good at doing handwork. Those who are not doing well in the mainstream schools the Department of Education is referring them here.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div contenteditable=\"false\" data-embed24=\"Images\" data-pos=\"middle\" id=\"embed_ec271fdd\">\n<div class=\"slide\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" data-smallsrc=\"https:\/\/cdn.24.co.za\/files\/Cms\/General\/d\/12358\/37c932357cc14425aaf270d0ac527b9f.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/cityvision\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/a46fd5c067c84111b53bbb4a8ea934ee.jpg\" title=\"Some learners busy sewing during the event. \"><p><\/p>\n<div class=\"caption\">Some learners busy sewing during the event. <\/div>\n<div class=\"img_accreditation\"><span class=\"source\" style=\"display:none;\"><\/span><span class=\"photographer\" style=\"display:none;\"><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Lupondo explained that after they complete school, some go to Further Education and Training (FET) Colleges, while others open their businesses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Parent Thiza Mokoela said it is exciting for parents to see the work produced by their children. \u201cThe school changes the perception that the community has about the learners,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAs the community, we tend to underestimate the learners and call them names. But judging by the quality of the work they do, they are way further than anyone at the mainstream schools.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said in a country where the economy is not stable, schools such as Siviwe are vital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the learners, Simanye Gigaba who does welding, stated he learnt so much at the school. He said his dream is to start his business and hire people. \u201cI know almost everything about welding.
