Cape Town’s libraries and recreation centres are launching a winter holiday programme for young people starting June 26th, 2026. The initiative aims to provide constructive activities during the school break, keeping youth engaged and safe. The programme will encompass a diverse range of offerings, including reading sessions to promote literacy. Participants will also have opportunities to learn coding skills, reflecting a focus on future-readiness. Additionally, sports and games will be incorporated to encourage physical activity and social interaction. The city hopes the programme will benefit many young residents during the colder months.
