             2: PEAK CHILD NIMBLE PRE-SCHOOL - EARLY CHILDHOOD DEVELOPMENT















             Nimble seeded an Early Childhood Development Centre, which officially opened it's doors in January 2019 in
             Woodstock, Cape Town. The school is run under the auspices of Peak Child and although open to the public, it
             is predominantly a subsidised pre-school for the children of Nimble staff. Peak Child’s vision is to give children
             the best possible start in life.

             Peak Child aims to provide high quality, affordable pre-schools close to where emerging middle-class parents
             work. They’ve already partnered with several leading educational experts and local primary schools, to ensure
             that the children who leave Peak Child will be socially, educationally and physically ready to go to any of Cape
             Town’s top primary schools.

             Peak Child caters for children from 3 months to 5 years old and currently has 3 schools, including Peak Child
             Nimble.

             Since the start of Peak Child, it has always been the school’s plan to partner with employers
             who are looking to:

                Make a positive social contribution to our country.
                Support their staff beyond the usual benefits that an employer offers.

             Nimble has approved an investment of R3 million over 3 years in this project contributing a minimum of
             R1  million  per  year  to  the  Cape  Town  school  and  hopes  to  replicate  this  model  in  close  proximity  of  our
             Johannesburg offices.
