We have 21 children who our in great need of attending Summer School this year. The program begins on November 12 and lasts 5 weeks. The cost is $25 a child for the 5 week term. Please prayerfully consider contributing to this great need. Our children would benefit greatly from this opportunity.
This is the private secondary school that 7 of our children attend, and God willing 14 more will begin attending when the new school year starts in January 2008. Free education is only offered in Malawi up through the 8th grade. If a child wants to continue their education past the 8th grade they must attend private school. We have seven children from the Good Samaritan that just completed their first year at this school. They were all in Form 1 (9th grade) and will move up to Form 2 (10th grade) in January. We have 14 eighth grade students that took the 8th grade completion exams in September. If they pass, they will have the opportunity to attend secondary school, provided that the funds are available. We will have the results of their exams in December.
Form 1 Children.
Where do the other children attend school? Good Question! I will be doing a post very soon dedicated to the children's school and educational needs. Currently Good Samaritan has a primary school on campus for children 3 years (pre-kindergarten) up to 8th grade.
