Imara Mission in Tanzania opens two new schools!
In January our two new English medium primary schools commenced-- that means all five schools have started! What an opportunity to bring life long change to these kids coming from poverty backgrounds. One is in the Maasai village of Mairowa and the other is in Mwika, a village on the slopes on Kilimanjaro. Meagan, Isack and Godsave were very busy in December and January preparing for the openings. In Mairowa there is Standard 1 and a kindergarten class. Each class has 30 students. Levina has started a new horticultural project so the kids learn they can grow vegetables at an early age! At Mwika there are 2 kindergarten classes and another class for younger children which they call the baby class. We have a new project co-ordinator at Mwika called Masaki. We have asked Roger and Ian from Australia to come in April to plan the way forward. There are still many children available for sponsorship if you are interested! Write to Roger Ellem at rellem@aapt.net.au or jennyw@missionoz.com Pray with us for Likamba school in Maasai land ... we are working on finding a long-term solution for them. Pictured left are some students studying in the storeroom. Karansi School topped their whole district out of around 22 schools. This is the second year in a row! It is such a contrast to a few years ago when only a handful of the poor kids got into high school.
