Franchisee of the Month
We are always inspired to see how hard our franchisees work with their various programmes in their areas, and even though everyone impressed us, our West Coast Franchisee Chantel Booysen really took her programmes to another level this month even making the local newspaper!!!
Most Inspirational Class
After our MiniChess teacher at Laerskool Du Preez van Wyk in Bronkhortspruit left about 2 months ago, we had to jump in immediately to make sure the learners get the most benefit out of the programme!

Thank you to Star for Life (Sweden) and The Entrust Foundation for making our sponsored programme at Safari Primary School in Hluhluwe, Northern KZN, possible!
So far we have had incredible feedback regarding the programme and the results are starting to show!!! The dedication of the MiniChess teacher, regional coordinator, and Headmaster at this school has been inspiring! The time and efforts invested in this school and other schools like them will be worth it when we see how these children grow into remarkable young adults and later go into the future workplace!
We have to empower our youth and help them achieve a sustainable future in a fast-paced, and fast-changing future workplace! Sadly many of the more rural schools in South Africa have large percentages of dropouts and with the help of our sponsors and roll-out partners, we can make a difference.

Venessa Calitz who originally started the Sandton franchise shortly before COVID, moved to South Munich, Germany shortly after! With her amazing zest for life, we are excited that she will be implementing the MiniChess programme in South Munich soon!!! Making SMART MOVES globally!!!
A massive thank you to Michela Da Cal from head office and our chief in charge, Marisa van der Merwe for jumping in every Wednesday afternoon to teach the level 1 MiniChess class!
The learners are understanding and implementing what they learn weekly and the growth has been astounding!
MiniChess is not CHESS, but uses chess as a tool to teach children the very important STEM Skills that they would need in a very fast-paced and ever-changing 21st century! As an added benefit, learners can become really great chess players if they choose to!
Laerskool Du Preez van Wyk, you inspire us and therefore are August’s most inspirational class!!!
