A Mind in the Making- the Gift of Cognitive Education
Full package rate: R1500 | Single bookings: R300 per ticket
Teaching our children to be critical, independent thinkers is an essential component of educating for the future. Cognitive education is key to securing a better future for our youth. Cognitive education develops children’s awareness of fundamental cognitive processes in relation to the learning task. This includes the conscious selection of strategies that match task demands.
Through cognitive education, we hope to develop independent thinkers, who question and analyse things deeply, and who can use metacognitive tools and strategies to become world changers.
