CONTESA has funded the construction of a brick built school block for orphans/children in Kabwe, some 90 miles north of the Zambian capital Lusaka. CONTESA is seeking donors and grants to expand and fund the operational costs of the school. Classes are planned to expand to include Grades 8 & 9 from 2010.

    Situation

    Provide orphans & disadvantaged children with basic primary education in a deprived area. To pass the national certificate at Grade VII schools have to meet certain criteria, so we first need to get the basic school facilities up to a minimum standard (which has been achieved, see CONTESa website www.contesacharity.co.uk). Now the John Stanbury school block has been completed CONTESA needs assistance with teachers salaries, books, educational equipment & consumables to support the running costs of the school. Photos of the building and of the progress are available in the CONTESA Newsletters available from the CONTESA website.
