How did we start?

Children’s Campaign Trust (CCT) was birthed in 1999 and first registered in 2000. It commenced with one of the trustees, David Morgan from Wales, seed funding the trust by purchasing a house in Green Point to the extent of about £200 000.  In late 2000 a second property in Claremont was purchased. Both of these properties have Montessori Pre-schools operating out of them. These are called Nutwood Forest Montessori Pre-school and The Children's Montessori Workshop, respectively. 

We currently rent another property in Claremont, Cape Town, from where we operate a Montessori Primary School.  This is called the Montessori Connect Primary School.

The assets controlled by the trust are now worth over R50 million and debt of less than R300 000 allows us great scope for social endeavours.  Turnover now exceeds R12 million and free cash of over R1 million is generated from the schools each year.  There are almost three hundred pupils across the three campuses.
