Fun Learning for Youth (FLY) held its first lesson on 20 February 2010, at Langa Highschool with 8 tutors and 40 Grade 9 learners (FLYers).
The objective was and continues to be, to provide high school learners from disadvantaged areas with free mathematics lessons.
Life Skills was introduced as a subject in 2012 when we realised that it is important to work with the learners holistically. Classes were moved to the JL Zwane Community Center in Gugulethu in 2013 as we continued to expand. FLY opened its Johannesburg chapter in February 2017 at Realogile High school in Alexander with a grade 8 and 9 class and 20 tutors.
Today FLY caters for learners from grade 8-12 in both the Cape Town and Johannesburg chapters. Today FLY boasts alumni with university degrees, university of technology diplomas, and even entrepreneurs. FLY is supported by over 50 tutors to deliver on its vision to empower young minds.
