Abstract	Approximately two-thirds of the world's population infected with HIV lives in Southern Africa. The factors contributing to this epidemic spread of HIV in South Africa are listed at the beginning of the study. Although the need for increased and early prevention is beyond dispute, the vast majority of prevention efforts are directed at young people and adults. However this study focuses on a school-based Life Skills Programme dealing with HIV/AIDS and sex education (Child Mind Project) for pre-adolescent children (10-11 years of age) from a township in Stellenbosch in South Africa's Western Cape Province. This paper will outline the programme in extensive detail. Furthermore the quantitative and qualitative instruments of the needs analysis, process evaluation and outcome evaluation will be presented in detail along with their results. One example is a questionnaire which was evaluated as part of a semi-experimental control group design with four specific measurement points. In comparing the pre-testing with the post-testing, the results of this instrument provide evidence of the clear effects it has in terms of increasing the children's knowledge of HIV and AIDS. Unfortunately these effects from the prevention programme are not very sustainable, as two follow-up studies have demonstrated. The reasons behind this lack of sustainability will be discussed in the context of socio-economic and socio-cultural aspects of the children's lives, and prospects for additional prevention measures will be offered at the end of the study.
