Takija is located in the real rural vilage in the North West Province of Cameroon. The community of this locality have started seeing the importance of nursery education because of this project. The project is like an eye opener to neighboring because the children that have been attending this school has made a difference by way of speacking, reading and even participating in official match passes.
The school remain a centre of attraction in most occasions. the enrolement has been increased as work on the construction continue.
We have aquired some cement geting ready to start plastering the inner parts of the school. Thanks to the frew that have so far supported this project.
We hope that during this Christmas season, donors wi support the young once in this local and rural vicinity to continue opening the eyes of other villages with quality nursery education.
May God Bless you.
This project observed a great experience as all the children since September received a host of volunteers from UK. We intensified our partnership with the Original volunteers in UK who sent in volunteers who came to work with the children in the Youth Centre. Much about their work is found in Serep News letter which are distributed to all our donors and supporters of this project. Jodie mills, Laura, and Paul all from UK and through Original volunteers who are our partners came in to assist in teaching, and also to build the capacity of teachers. It was a great opportunity to have these volunteer who are still in Cameroon at the moment. Most of the children especially those ones that were identified and admitted into year one are happy receiving education with most of their essential requirements being made available through the Global giving disbursement. Through the Global giving support, well qualified teachers have been employed and Jodie who is a professional teacher gave a lot of assistance in guiding the teachers on proper teaching. Laura enjoyed playing hand ball and football including physical education as you can see in the pictures attached. We have also been working very had in their news school which we are looking forward to completing the new phase and to start using it proper in January. Thanks to those who have been supporting this project. Orphaned and vulnerable children continue to be on the rise in this part of the country. We are proud to report that the wonderful results being recorded by the final year students, more normal students are also knocking at our doors. This will help to wipe out the stigmatization as they were always stigmatized since the school was meant for them and most of the children were from desperate poor background, orphaned and equally vulnerable. More pictures can be requested because the report has a provision only for few pictures. Good Enough one of the volunteers Shey Maurice supported the school with computers and the orphaned now have a very good computer laboratory. Thank for this volunteer who is still working with this children and in the construction of the school project. We need your continues support and prayers for more volunteers to continue coming out to give a smile and join us in restoring hope on these children. Of you were to give presence to people during this Christmas season, please remember the education of the orphaned in this part of the world.

It has been a wanderful turning point to this project. Though the support has been very slim, we have moved a great step ahead. In the last few months, we had some volunteers Hanna, Pipa and Ceri all from Original volunteers in Uk who came and were assigned to work with these women groups from the level in wichi they were. It was a great cfhallenge for these three young girls to penetrate the rural villages and got to know much about the importance of this project, and they way forward. The little that has been raised was far in adequate to even help up to five groups. The first pilot groups were choosen through their commitment, and trained as trainers for other groups. A workshop was held at the NGO's Head office.
A model Business plan for the whole project was established and we are working on it at the moment todevelope more strategies of fund raising both internally and externally. Firstly these groupds have been trained to start team work where individuals will contribute a little token to the their group fund so that we can encourage local fundraising within themselves while looking for external funds.
Hannah and Pipa were very excited and also came up with and HIVAIDS attached to the project. This is to ensure that every women group invvolved in the project received continues HIVF Aids education and also become a peer educator in their various homes and communities.
The ladies were also supported by Mr. Luke and amar Karia who also enjoyed field trips with them to actually see the women in their various locallities.
Hanna is from the University of susex and her report has enable her to be given an opportunity by the university to have an official internship in the project from January 2013 to June.
Who ever is supporting or has supported this project should have a higher hope with the iinterest Hannah has shown and with a good modela business plan for the project.
Thanks to those who have supported this project and now that HIV Aids have been attached to it, I call on those who woud like to sop the HIVAIDS stigma should support thise project whole heartedly.
I would also like to end this report by reporting that among these groups some groups are groups of women living with HIV AIDS and they are very happy with the attachment of this to the Palm oil project as they can do very well in open testimonies when Hannah comes back in January.
May God bless you all.
