We always love sharing more about the Olasiti Children's Foundation! Many of you have kindly donated and we are thankful. We are just $2,000 short of our 2024 annual goal to support scholarships & operation expenses. Every year we aim for $16k to provide a foundation for the Center.
This is an excerpt from the 2023 Annual Report - with details about the school. YES in addition to supporting children who need a safe home, you heard correct, an official school:
"Official school opened on 9th Jan 2023 and closed in 7 th Dec 2023 as government schools calendar, the school opened with 66 pupils in BABY CLASS, MIDDLE CLASS, PREPARATION CLASS, CLASS ONE AND TWO.
Prep school class has two teachers with 6 subjects, games: - Communication, Healthcare, Environment, Mathematics and Relation and primary section has 3 teachers.
Stating with Mathematics 26 pupils in middle class were able to get over 76% success in all examination since MID-TERM, TERMINAL AND ANNUAL.
The subject of Communication helps pupils to recognize, speak and write. With 26 middle class pupils we were able to get 91% cause success in all examinations.
Heath care subject children’s learn how to keep the environment clean and things surround them.
Twenty-six middle class pupils got over 92% do well in outside and inside the classroom.
For the subject of Relation, 26 pupils in middle class got over 80% read and speak well sounds letters with capital and small letters.
In class One, there are few challenges not every student has the same abilities especially in Reading, Writing and Counting.
Some of the pupils come from streets when they are past the age and too late in the year so it’s the first time to be in school and needs special education procedures to cope up with those went in all stages.
We were able to take three educative field trips to Tarangire, Manyara, and farmer trade fairs.
OCF Management team still plan together with teachers and caregivers on how to improve academic situation including provision of monthly tests....
All in all our goals is to make sure every students are capable in Writing, Reading and Counting and for that we will need more materials, books and more time to stay with students.
Another challenge we faced this year is transportation of kids to and from school as some are too young to walk alone from home to the center currently we use relatives to es**rt them to protect them from road accidents.
And we would like to have time for different religion studies even one day in a week (OCF is non-denominational)....
Special Thanks to WORLD EDUCATION FOR KIDS, FOTOs, BUILDMART, PROCUREMENT GEARS LTD, The Management Team, friends, neighbors, Volunteers, Our Teachers, Matrons and caregiver who have supported us in either way in 2023.We always say one person to another person is the World."
