Today, and on various days during the month of September 2026, many Catholic Schools around South Africa will be taking part in the Leave Your Print Campaign.

This campaign invites each child to go barefoot to school, in solidarity with learners who do not have school shoes and other basic necessities.

One of the core programmes that CIE runs with schools is Building Peaceful Schools: a multi-faceted approach involving teachers, learners, parents and principals in order to change our schools so that they become places of peace and safety for all.
