New classrooms ready The first ever proper classrooms are ready and in use at the Anchow Mikael school, about an hour outside of Gondar. Until about a year ago, the pupils were taught under temporary shelters made of branches and sticks which washed away with every heavy rainstorm. For less than £1000, the local community has been able to build an impressive double classroom and the pupils are now enjoying year-round education!

Project proposal The Kebele 03 Kindergarten has 5 functional classrooms which are packed tightly with enthusiastic children during lesson times. But they have very little suitable furniture to allow writing and study to be done in any convenient and comfortable way. They do have some rather ancient desk units in two of the classrooms, but these came from a nearby secondary school when they were considered to be too old for normal use there. Hence they are not only in…
