INFORMATION ABOUT DONATING

Welcome To Apricot Tree

Thank you for visiting or showing an interest in the Apricot Tree Centre. The centre is a non-profit organisation in the East Rand.

We strive to cater to the needs of learners between the ages of 3 and 25, who  have intellectual, developmental and physical disabilities.

We believe in supporting families and the community in better understanding special needs education.

Our Facilities

Our Amazing Classes

Apricot Tree Centre is committed to the stimulation and development of children with physical, intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Apricot Tree strives to provide the highest quality service; enabling each learner to reach their full potential. We cater for learners with unique disabilities who are often not accepted in the public or mainstream special needs schools.  As each learner is unique and they have different needs, an ISP (Individualised Support Plan) is set up to establish specific attainable goals and is designed to enable the highest level of development.

We keep our classes to a maximum of 7 learners per class. This ensures that learners receive the maximum educational benefit possible.

The Centre has a holistic approach, directing its efforts not only towards the development of the learners, but also towards the support of families with special needs children.
