Thanks to Christ the King Parish in Liverpool
Matunduzi School is one of the poorest we have come across. When we visited for the first time, the headteacher was pretty poorly and obviously not managing, the teachers were working under the shade of a mango tree, the buildings were in a rotten state and the children, well as always, they continued to smile.
With a lot of hard work from members of Christ the King Millenium Group, resulting in a very generous donation, we have completely transformed Matunduzi School
Classrooms have been totally renovated with new windows, floors and doors and the walls have been painted. Access ramps have been fitted to classrooms
Toilets for boys and for girls constructed
Also instead of the headteacher and deputy headteacher operating from within a cupboard in the corner of a classroom, they now have a working space which they are sharing with the other teachers.
Everybody is working together to enhance the educational standards
Thank you to everybody involved
