DELFT
is a mixed community, growing rapidly as people moving into
the informal settlements around the Cape are relocated there. It
lies to the west of the Cape Town airport, a long way out of town.

| The
parish consists of 650 families, 382 Afrikaans speaking, 201
English speaking and 67 Xhosa speaking. St Matthew’s Church
is situated on the corner of Bergroos and Silversands Roads. |

THE
CHALLENGE
Alongside is a vacant site ( no 2551 Delft ) well suited for
an inner city type school. Its acquisition from the Cape Provincial
Authority is proving a drawn-out process. However, it is understood
that the Provincial Treasurer may well offer the land at an
affordable price. Once this has been achieved the task of
raising funds will begin in earnest to be followed by the
exciting development of the school itself . |
| |
| The
Project Proposal includes architect’s plans by Cooke, Lefevre
and Adams.The development costs await the decision on the
price of the land and also upon the pace at which the building
will proceed. The architect’s estimate is in the range of
R 5 000 000. 00. |
| |
| The
running costs over the first two years of development are
estimated as R 842 000. |
