“I enjoyed the workshop on Saturday and found it very helpful.
Thank you for creating this platform and the opportunity to openly discuss our challenges and share our experiences
It was a well paced session, very interesting and informative. You've given me the stepping stones to learn through play while having fun with my daughter. I feel alot more empowered now knowing that learning isn't only limited to the classroom.”

Thank you so incredibly much for the amazing workshop! I am a second year B.Ed. student and teaching for the first time as a grade R educator and I had learnt so much just in that short workshop. I cannot wait to attend many, many more workshops of yours. I have subscribed on the website to receive notifications for future workshops.

Thank you for a fantastic evening filled with fun, playful ideas to encourage parents to PLAY WITH their children while giving them opportunities to develop learning skills.
I received positive feedback from the staff and parents. One of the parents commented that she is sad that we did not have better attendance as she feels that they missed out on a wonderful evening sharing fun, learning ideas.

I wish to thank you and share with you what an impact your workshop made on me. I valued the information you shared so much. Your insight into what we need to remain mindful of as role-players in education was thought-provoking, relevant, captivating and… INTERESTING! It was just what I needed in the final and CRAZY fourth term of the year.
I (on a personal note) was in such admiration of you as a speaker and presenter in particular. I have been privileged to find myself being called to present at a number of seminars, workshops and conferences over the past year or two, and I know how much work it takes to truly make a lasting impact on a room full of (usually tired) teachers. I found it inspiring to be on the ‘other’ end of the motivation, and to realise that sometimes one person truly can send ripples of positive energy through a room full of people. You have such a gift!
I would love to chat more in the future, as I see you as a model of where I dream to be in a few years time.
Keep inspiring, enlightening and educating… South Africa needs more people like you!
Warmest regards,


Thanks so much Renee, Sandy

We had the privilege of hosting and attending a workshop by Renee Lighton at Plettenberg Bay Primary School in February. The workshop was attended by parents and teachers and was a huge success.
Renee is a dynamic speaker, who gets everyone involved, excited, and thinking! Her ideas are endless, and most importantly, fun.
And the great thing is, the activities don't cost anything, as you can use items from around the house - so no excuses.
I believe every parent and teacher left the workshop having learnt something from Renee, and will be learning through play with their children!
Thank you for a great, positive, fun evening. We will definitely be back for more the next time.

I highly recommend her courses. It’s particularly good for coaching parents on how to PLAY (talk/learn) with their young children.
