Sankofa School | Sewing & Design

Sankofa School promotes imagination and creativity in children through sewing and design. 

Sankofa means "go back and fetch it".

The Sankofa bird going forward has its head turned backward while holding an egg in its mouth.  The egg represents past knowledge upon which wisdom is based.  The symbol represents the idea that generations to come can benefit from this past knowledge.   

At Sankofa School we're pulling from traditional skills of the past to inspire children toward a creative and confident future.
