New classroom...happy children (and staff)

New classroom at slum school

The children at Church on the Rock School in Nairobi's Kware slum are very happy - they have a bright, shiny classroom!

 It's a vast improvement on the old one whose tin walls had jagged edges which cut the children's fingers. 

The new classroom was made possible by a generous Rotary District Grant which was initiated by the Rotary Club of Bromley who have been great supporters of our work over many years!

The classroom is made of corrugated iron on a wooden frame, in keeping with the normal construction methods in the slum. 

The classroom will enhance the children's learning experience, helping them achieve the exam successes they need to get a good job which pays enough for them to leave slum life behind them.
