New Hope School Ndola

These are the latest photos we have just received from Christopher in Ndola. He said that they are just about to plaster the walls and glaze the windows. Hopefully it will be very soon that even more children will receive the education they deserve.

Feeding Jar Project

Gareth and I have just finished hours of counting money! Thanks to pupils at Eglwys Wen School we have the first £400 to go towards our feeding jar project. This will feed children at the new school in Chiziro. It is an amazing amount which will go a long way to providing one hot meal a day for the children like these.

Place of Hope- Chiziro- Progress

Great news. Donations are now starting to come in via Alan Powell who is the driving force in Zambia for the latest project to build the new school in Chiziro. Two donors have given £2000 between them which is amazing and people are starting to sign up for the support fund which will pay the salaries of a teacher at the school. A pre school shelter has already been completed and the school roll has swelled to 75. This shelter will eventually become the feeding centre and another two classrooms will be built by September of 2011.

Ethembeni(Place of Hope) School, Chiziro

We are awaiting photos of the building work that has already started at our new school in Chiziro,Chipata. We are building a village school with a multi-functional hall. This hall will be used outside school hours to provide a youth centre and adult literacy classes for the local community. It will also be used as a basic medical station which will be regularly visited by a nurse. Thanks to everyone involved in the fund raising for this amazing new project.

Carols by Candlelight 2010

We have pleasure in announcing the date of this year's Carols by Candlelight. It will be on Saturday 11th December at 7p.m. and everyone is most welcome to join in the fun. The singing will be led this year by pupils from Radyr Comprehensive School and our pianist will be Kate Morgan. We are hoping to make this even bigger than last year's event with all money raised going towards the building of the new school in Chipata.

Hog Roast for Chiziro 2010

Last night Maggie our chairperson held a very successful hog roast and supper which was attended by 70 people. Everyone had a great time. The food was delicious and the quiz run by Tina was enjoyed by all. This was the first event to raise funds to build a school from scratch in the Chipata area of Zambia. Thanks to all our supporters.
