Summary
The Mind Blown League, a play-based learning game, aims to boost eco-awareness and education among primary school learners. Recently, 16 students from Ekuthuleni Primary School, KwaMashu, participated, engaging in a card game that teaches science, technology, and environmental facts through a “Myth or Fact” format. The game promotes teamwork and critical thinking. Though a mobile version exists, most learners lack phone access. Launched in August 2023, the Mind Blown League has reached 5,000 pupils at 100 eThekwini schools. Its co-founders aim to address poor reading skills and the lack of reading materials at home.
