We are going to engrave the names of those who would donated towards the purchase of chairs and the building of the first phase.

Although the container is our main immediate priority, we also hope to raise sufficient funds to enable the first building phase of the Nyanga North High School to serve underprivileged students in this remote part of Zimbabwe. We plan to build 6 workshops, 2 classroom blocks and 2 modest teachers houses. At current prices the cost of the bricks is £31,000. Donations towards this project would also be enormously appreciated.

If you want to donate any item from the list above please drop it at your child's boarding house if you are a parent at St Edward's School, or you can contact Henry Chitsenga at chitsengah@stedwardsoxford.org and he will arrange for collection.
