Celebrating Excellence: Patrick Ndlovu, our June Employee of the Month
At Eco Children, we believe in the power of passionate individuals to plant seeds of change — in our environment, in our classrooms, and in our communities.
That’s why we are proud to shine a spotlight on someone who embodies all those values and more: Patrick Ndlovu, our Employee of the Month for June.
Patrick serves as an Environmental Educator at Mahlathi Primary School, where he plays an instrumental role in educating and inspiring the next generation of eco-conscious leaders. With a calm, humble presence and a deep-rooted commitment to environmental awareness, Patrick is more than just a teacher — he is a mentor, a role model, and a steward of positive change.

Whether he’s guiding learners through the intricacies of ecosystems, teaching them how to grow their own vegetables, or leading by example in the school’s permaculture garden, Patrick consistently goes above and beyond. His passion for nurturing both the earth and young minds is evident in everything he does — from classroom activities to after-school engagements and community outreach projects.
His colleagues describe him as a gentle soul with a quiet determination and an unshakable belief in the power of education. Learners admire him not only for his knowledge, but for the kindness and respect with which he treats every individual. Patrick’s work reflects Eco Children’s mission at its core: educate, empower, and uplift.
As we celebrate Patrick’s well-earned recognition this month, we are reminded of the importance of every single person in our Eco Children family. It’s the daily commitment of educators like Patrick that keeps our programmes thriving and our impact growing.
To Patrick, we say thank you. Thank you for the seeds you plant — both in the soil and in the hearts of those you teach. Your work is helping to grow a greener, more conscious future for us all!
