Namatapa Primary School
Namatapa Primary School, located in Kaselema Village, Zomba District, serves 1,312 students (670 girls, 642 boys) with 27 teachers and a catchment population of approximately 19,000 people from 27 villages. The school relies on a functional borehole with an Afridev hand pump for water supply but with a toilet-to-student ratio of 262:1—well above the recommended 50:1 standard—the sanitation situation is critical.
Zomba CCAP Primary School
Every morning in the city of Zomba, Malawi, hundreds of children walk through the gates of Zomba CCAP Primary School with the same dream as students anywhere in the world: to learn, grow, and build a better future. (Watch video clips below)Just a few minutes from the District Education Office, the school serves 586 students—322 boys and 264 girls—from Standard 1 through Standard 8. Twenty-four dedicated teachers work tirelessly to educate them, often with limited resources but an enormous commitment to their students.On the surface, the school looks like a place full of hope. Classrooms are busy, teachers are dedicated, and the kitchen prepares warm porridge for students each day. But behind the scenes, a simple challenge threatens the health and dignity of every child at the school: access to safe water and sanitation.
