Skynet Worldwide Express is busy implementing a fleet refurbishment and a brand refresh exercise to bring it in line with the global Skynet brand which also features a new slogan - 'The partnership that delivers'.

Clients will not be inconvenienced at all, as most of the fleet will be completed in off-peak times, over weekends and in the evenings.

True to our promise of 'The partnership that delivers' we have just completed a huge project for the Department of Education. The project was in three phases. The first phase involved the delivery of 600 000 workbooks to over 18 000 schools across South Africa, the workbooks were in all eleven official languages and had to be picked per language, per school, as well as the number of learners speaking that language at the school.

The second phase involved delivering over 14 000 Grade R kits to just as many schools, with the schools receiving one kit each in the appropriate language. The kits were also delivered to all education stakeholders - HODs, steering committees, monitoring committees, district offices as well as all teacher unions. The final phase involved delivering numeracy and literacy lesson plans to all schools up to grade 4. This was a huge crowning moment for Skynet as all the delivery guidelines and parameters were met.
