Project Report | Jul 3, 2024
Our school is growing

We are greatful for every donation we received this past year, whether monthly and once off.  Your $15 means a child gets at least one cooked meal a day.  Your $120 covers full tuition and means an eager student can keep learning and working towards a brighter future.

We started the year with 190 students and ended with 230 because another school in the area closed down.  We did everything possible to accommodate these students, but it has put a significant strain on our resources.

While the students are on holiday, we are not.  We will continue to share the story of this special school and would be grateful if you could help spread the word by telling your friends.  Together we ca make the world a better place.

Here is a link to a short documentary on the school's history.  In June we did a viewing of the documentary at the school and invited a few guests along to see for them selves what a shining light this school really is. The pupils did a dance performance and demostrated science experiments they recently learnt about.
