Sponsoring student teacher Oscar Sitali from Buiketo Community at David Livingstone College.
Taunton & Lisieux Rotary Clubs are sponsoring Oscar for the 3 year course, to commemorate the 5oth anniversary of the link between the two clubs.
Installing an Irrigation System
Having installed a borehole and handpump in October 2008 this is an exciting addition that will enable the school to grow vegetables and fruit trees, thereby greatly improving the childrens' diet.
Building a new school and toilets at Simatobolo - building now complete; we are furnishing with school desks, tables etc.
This new school replaced two very dilapidated mud huts and will accommodate 150 children in three classrooms.
WHAT WE WANT TO DO
