As a returned volunteer with VSO in Zimbabwe I am only too aware of how useful any resources would be at any of the schools VSO sends volunteers to. I still have many contacts in Zimbabwe at the rural school I taught at so would appreciate being able to send them resources.The address is: Chitowa Secondary School, PO Box 340, Murewa, Zimbabwe. Bearing in mind VSO are always sending new volunteers to developing countries I hope that you have contacted them directly with your offer.

Earlier this year my partner and I visited Nepal and visited a school and an orphanage in the Khumbu valley and Kathmandu respectively. We promised both of these that we would send whatever school equipment we could organise, as I hope that when I start teacher training I will be able to use contacts to collect unwanted supplies. We are also trying to organise collections from all local schools within our LEA, but realise this is going to take some time to set up.

The school and orphanage (the latter also has a school room where the children do homework and practise English with each other, and where the younger children begin their education) have hardly any resources, and are desperate for books, posters, stationery and educational toys. We have arranged with a trekking company who have offices in the UK to take as much equipment as we can gather over to the schools on a regular basis. We would be extremely grateful for any supplies we could send to them.

Many thanks, Mandi

Just to say many thanks for the posters and equipment - we received them this morning and they are now on their way to Kathmandu and Namche! I know the children will be very grateful and make good use of them.

Rogbonko Village School flourishes. Our fundraising has been going well and we plan to build a new school building to replace the old thatch one - work starts this month, once the rains are over.

I was wondering whether you are still sending packs of teaching materials to schools. There is another school - Alimse Primary School in Tonkolili Village - not too far from Rogbonko in Sierra Leone, currently convening under a tree! The entire viallge was burned during the war. They had the misfortune to be directly on route to a strategically important hydro electric project.

One last thing - I am looking for exercise books and pencils for Rogbonko School. Do you have any contacts with suppliers who might be able to help me? Just wondered.

Hope all is well with you,

Best wishes

I was reading your email regarding the availability of resources to send to schools in developing countries. I worked at a junior secondary school in the Ashanti Region of Ghana (Sekyedumase) in 2000 and was wondering whether resources are still available, and whether they could be sent to the school?
