The Children

Swaziland ClassroomThe aims of the charity are to support education in Swaziland and to provide children with the necessary skills and abilities not only to get work but also to survive. The current program is about teaching nutrition, cooking, the care of animals and agricultural skills and how to look after their clothes in addition to the standard curriculum. From their third year in school children are taught in English and with out that their chances of getting employment would be minimal.

Teachers Housing

With the vision and hard work of Jack Dobson schools and their teachers now benefit from proper living accommodation on site which enables them to concentrate on more schooling for the children and not having to travel several hours every day. Please help us to continue with this work.

Food Clothes and Books for Children

For all of the children, a great need is for books, clothes and food at every school. The charity is already addressing the problems in some schools of clean and secure kitchens. There is still work to be done.

Swaziland School ChildrenThe Future

Who can say what the future will hold for Swaziland with all the inherent problems of disease and drought.  Owing to HIV and AIDS life expectancy will soon be dropping from the 40s to the 30s. In spite of all these difficulties it remains true that Swaziland will be needing educated leaders in commerce and business and in all areas of influence. What we are doing now for schools will reap a rich harvest and enable Swaziland to turn a corner and look to a brighter and improved future.

EMERGENCY NEED

Currently we are looking to raise £2000 for a complete refurbishment of an old teachers house. which hasn't been occupied for over two years. It requires a new roof, a bathroom, an indoor toilet and a new kitchen. This is more cost effective than building a completly new house. Forbes Reef Primary School has been allocated a new teacher because the Swazi Government has decided to support the education of grade one children. Next year it will continue by funding grade two children. (All other children pay compulsory school fees). We hope to complete this project in this calender year in order that the school may take full advantage of this new teacher and the new grade one pupils who will be able to attend.
Please go to our donations page and help us to raise these urgently needed funds.

Life Skills Unit

The Life Skills (Home Economics) unit at Enkhaba Primary School in the North of Swaziland has now been completed.
These units help children to learn to cook, to wash and mend and even make clothes, to learn about nutrition and learn how to grow and make use of the vegetables they grow in the school gardens. Other schools still need these units and your donations will be gratefully received.
