In 2010 Sir Henry Floyd headed to World Challenge project in Zambia and completed their project phase near Monze in the Southern Province of Zambia. They set out to help complete a house that the school were building which they would rent out and use the money generated to pay for pre-school teachers.
The team put the roof on, the doors in, laid the floor and put the windows in. As well as this they painted parts of the school and planted a vegetable garden. Since the team left the project hosts have got in touch and have shared how the project work has made a difference to them and the community.
Pictures are of Sister Racheal and the school children. The half built house before Sir Henry went to do their project work.
This is what Sister Racheal had to say: “The St, Mary’s people are very grateful for your thoughtfulness and love you have for them. They had a big celebration, its all because of you nice people over there. We have managed to send some of our children from pre -school to grade one at St Mary’s Basic school , and we have also enrolled more. The garden is doing fine with plenty of vegetables, tomatoes, onions and spinach. The rain is pouring almost every day people are very busy in their fields. The house you built next week will be put on rent one of the teachers from St Marys will occupy it. The money will be used towards the payments of the teachers for the pre-school.”
