World Challenge meets the education department in Malawi


This is some feedback from a project up in northern Malawi.
"We were blessed with another World Challenge group this year as well.

A large group came from Queen Elizabeth’s College in Lincolnshire and an Australian leader named Daine. They were an excellent team and went straight to work at the local primary school, Chikale, constructing another adventure playground. This time with a difference as it had giant games like connect four, bao, a maze and a chess board.

They left a donation as they had budgeted so well which was very generous as a group decision. This could mean a new classroom which is well needed with over 100 students in each class at the moment.

Everyone was very hands on, even those who couldn’t lift, dig, hammer, were kept busy with painting and decorating inside classes. It was great to get a visit from the education department showing interest and well deserved biscuit delivery. Once again I feel so happy to be part of the work this organization does and after all their hard work I get to see the joy it brings to children around us that need play equipment, and as Mr. Moyo, head of education stated a place to give learning minds a chance to rest and have their well earned fun.
