New gutters for classrooms
KG VI School for disabled and deaf children just had to replace the roof on the secondary school classrooms as this had been put up by the army many years ago and they had not used the best quality roofing material. As a result the roof sheets were curling and threatening to blow off in a high wind. A nasty surprise was that the gutters were rusted and damaged as well. They need to be replaced with strong new ones that will not fall and will not leak and then damage ceilings.
Bent and rusted gutter
About KG VI Centre and school:
KG VI provides education, rehabilitation and boarding facilities to children from age 5 to 18 with physical disabilities and hearing impairments. It is the only secondary education facility in Zimbabwe for children with disabilities and the only primary school in the southern part of the country. The children come from all over the country. Those that board only go home for holidays, at least ..if they still have a home. (For the growing number of orphans the Center organizes permanent housing.) All children stay in small units with an accompanying house parent, to create a family situation. They develop their self-reliance by sharing household chores, managing a budget for groceries and preparing nutritious meals.
Education and training
KG VI offers tailor made education to its pupils and focuses especially on the capabilities and talents of the pupil. The school prepares them for further education or – if they do not have the necessary academic skills - a job, by organizing job training.
KGVI has 360 pupils, 92 children are orphaned, but the others are all vulnerable children as well whose parents rarely able to pay school fees. KGVI is strongly dependent on donations.
