Our current project

Bright Stars Preschool Project

Mabulauni, Matobo District, Matebeleland South, Zimbabwe

Our current project addresses Sustainable Development Goal no.4.2 “By 2030, ensure that all girls and boys have access to quality early childhood development, care and pre-primary education so that they are ready for primary education.”

 

Problem: lack of preschool provision for the children of this community because the nearest Early Childhood Development Centre (preschool) is too far away and across a river too deep for unders 5s to cross

Project initiated by: community leaders

Current situation: a temporary iron sheet structure has been built by the community to protect the chidren from the rain

Aim: to provide easily accessible early education and nutrition for preschool children

Our project objective: construct a 2 classroom preschool to replace the temporary structure currently being used, for initially approximately 50 children.

Local implementing partner: Encounter Trust NGO
