The following piece of verse, which was written by Frank McGuinness (one of Ireland's leading modern playwrights) to mark the opening of the computer laboratory at Intshayelelo Primary School in 2005, both captures the spirit of Protea Education Development Project and underlines the focus of the projects supported by the charity: that is, an emphasis on the value of knowledge and learning.

    • Knowledge is light,
    • Light is kindly,
    • Love knowledge,
    • Love the light.
