Re:Storying Education, a core initiative of Love Our City, is our long-term commitment to renewing the story of education in South Africa by supporting the people who carry it.
We believe that when teachers, students, families, and community partners are connected, dignified, and resourced, the whole system shifts.
Through three focus areas - Re:Story Legacy, Re:Story Futures, and Re:Story Together - we work alongside schools to bridge divides, strengthen relationships, and create environments where learning can flourish. Re:Storying Education is ultimately about restoring hope, dignity, and possibility in our schools.
Re:Together
Equipping leaders to reimagine their schools and communities through collaboration, moral courage, and shared purpose. The aim is to enlist, engage, and empower leaders; to help restore trust, renew vision, and rebuild the moral foundations of communities — inviting us to re-story education through leadership that transforms.
Re:Legacy
Sustaining and empowering teachers, the everyday nation-builders shaping South Africa’s future from the classroom. By combining wellness and practical support, it helps educators renew their sense of calling and find fresh strength for the classroom. Re:Story Legacy invests in teachers’ wellbeing and growth so they can lead with confidence, inspire curiosity in their learners, and build thriving classrooms that drive lasting change in schools and communities.
Re:Futures
Removing barriers that prevent young people from learning and thriving. By addressing practical challenges that affect access to education, it restores dignity, sparks possibility, and helps learners build confidence for the future. Re:Story Futures exists to show young people that their circumstances don’t define their story that, with the right support and community around them, their future can be rewritten in hope.
