The noise of results day can be overwhelming. As the dust starts to settle, we want to remind you to check in with the most important person in this process: YOU 🧡

Regardless of the numbers on that paper, your mental health and well-being remain the priority. Take a moment today to breathe, move your body, and be kind to yourself.

To the Class of 2025: take a deep breath 🌿

The wait is almost over. As you prepare to receive your results, we want you to remember one thing: you are so much more than a symbol on a page.

Whether you get the results you hoped for or things didn’t go quite as planned, your journey doesn't end here. You have shown incredible resilience, navigated challenges, and made it to this finish line. That alone is a massive achievement.

Celebrate your hard work.

Be kind to yourself.

Remember that there are many paths to success.

At Community Keepers, we are proud of every single one of you. Your future is bright because of who you are, not just what you achieved today.

Making Space to Rest

As the school year comes to a close, we’re reminded how important it is to pause. Rest is not a break from progress, it’s part of it. It gives us space to breathe, reset and return with purpose.

In order to rest, we will be taking a break from social media over this festive period. Let this be your encouragement to unplug and slow down.

To our team, the learners and the educators we partner with, thank you for showing up with care and courage. We look forward to a new year of well being.

Young people leading the way

After a su***de prevention awareness event, a learner took a resource home to support her friend. A few days later she returned to say thank you. Her friend had reached out for help.

One poster. One brave step. One life changed.

Safe Schools Start With All of Us

Every learner deserves to feel safe, valued and supported at school.

At Community Keepers, we work with teachers, caregivers and learners to build school communities where trust is nurtured, voices are heard and wellbeing is a shared priority.

You can be part of the change. Your support helps us reach more schools and walk alongside more young people across South Africa.

Breaking generational patterns starts with awareness

A parent recently shared how our session helped her realise how her own childhood shaped the way she was raising her child. With new insight and practical tools, she now feels more confident to lead with love, communicate more openly and respond with empathy. Our Parent Guide has become a trusted resource in their home: a reminder of why this work matters.

Belonging Keeps Children in School

When children feel they belong, they are more likely to attend school and participate with curiosity and confidence. In many under-resourced communities, school drop-out is a growing concern. Our response is simple but powerful: create spaces where learners feel wanted, seen and safe.

At Community Keepers, we work with schools to build relationships that last. Our team of psychologists, counsellors and facilitators partners with educators and caregivers to support learners socially and emotionally. We offer counselling, group sessions and educator support, all free and accessible.

Belonging isn’t a bonus. It’s the foundation for learning, connection and growth.

Kindness doesn’t have to be grand to make an impact

We are intentional about the small acts — a note of encouragement, a shared laugh, a few moments of reflection together. Because it’s these small actions that create a ripple effect, spreading warmth, gratitude, and connection throughout our school community.

It’s the small acts of kindness that, over time, grow into something much bigger — a culture of care.

Who We Are

We are here for learners. And educators. And parents.

Through our whole-school approach, we walk alongside children and young people, creating safe, nurturing spaces where they feel seen, heard and supported. We also work closely with parents and teachers to build school ecosystems that prioritise mental health and wellbeing, helping learners grow, connect and thrive in school and their communities.

Creativity creates connection

During a ‘self-care through art’ session, our educators swapped stress for laughter and reflection. With paintbrushes in hand, they found space to reconnect with themselves and each other.

Looking after our teachers’ wellbeing is part of building a thriving school community.
