One of the biggest problems identified by the teaching staff at our school is the poor nutrition and often, complete lack of food for children with working parents. To combat this, a group of teachers from the school have formed a working group and initiated a school lunch room.
The children most in need were identified and members of the project visited their houses to ascertain the nutritional status of the selected students and inform their parents. Currently there are more than 30 students who benefit from the daily lunch and contribute one Bolviano ($US 0.15 cents) each.
It is hoped that in the future we can extend this service to feed more students in the community and provide increasingly nutritious food.
