Project Report | Jan 25, 2011
Launching into 2011

By Emily Smith | Voluntary Field Worker

Transition Class of 2010
Transition Class of 2010

This January 19 children graduated out of Transition class to join government primary schools, these children have all attended primary school in the past but had to drop out due to lack of funds. A further 10 children moved on to primary school from our preparation class for those who have never been to school before. We had several children visit the project in the first week of term before they started school to proudly show off their new school uniform. This is a great encouragement to our project teachers who are launching into a new year ready to receive new children into their classrooms.

We are currently accepting a new intake of children into the prep and transition classes for the coming year. Soon the compound will be filled again with the sound of kids chanting their vowels and times-tables and the rhyme they shout whenever a kid answers a question correctly 'For you, for you, you are the best!'
