Happy Faces pre & primary school.
There is so much scope in this area. Many people, both qualified and un-qualified have joined in to help at the pre-school. This has brought a new level of enthusiasm and energy to the school. Those participating have benefited greatly in both their professional and personal lives.
What we do is very rewarding and many people ask us how they can help. The work at the school can be fulfilling for those who wish to connect with young children. People with the necessary skill sets can teach and this is very much in demand, however being a teacher assistant is a great way to start. More especially for those who are young and energetic this helps with ones personal growth and development as interaction occurs with children from the village. We have seen so many people blossom as close relationships and mutual respect forms and as their experience grows. After a period in the school we have noticed how peoples self confidence and esteem grows. Why not try it??
Capital items.
The needs in this area grow as the school expands and the community dependency grows. To list a few:
– A rebore of the existing bore hole to 120m.,
– More buildings for a media and music centre,
– Training programs for the teachers,
– Toilets to accommodate the new grade (as per Health Dept requirements.)
– A security system. The profile of the school is increasing and is potentially a target,
– Play equipment,
– Levelling of a play area,
– Volunteering.
