International Autism Day
Annually the Johannesburg School of Autism hosts the families of their learners to a day of fun, and the learners get to show and tell of their work.
At the Paul and Humile Mashatile Foundation, we are dedicated to ensuring that children with neurodivergent conditions, particularly those on the autism spectrum, receive the support, respect, and empowerment they deserve. Our focus is on creating inclusive environments where these children thrive and are not excluded due to socio-economic circumstances or lack of awareness.
A world where neurodiversity is celebrated and where autistic children are fully supported and included in all aspects of society.
To foster an inclusive society that recognises and supports the inherent value and unique gifts that autistic individuals bring.
Neurodiversity aims to de-stigmatize different kinds of brain functionality, its a
framework for celebrating variations in how children think, learn and process
information. This positive perspective can benefit children in school and beyond:
It empowers and encourages neurodiverse kids to see their brain differences as strengths to be
celebrated, rather than disabilities to be feared.
It helps children cultivate self-esteem, viewing their differences not as impediments but simply
as expressions of their uniqueness, preparing them to handle their neurodivergence in all
developmental aspects of their lives.
