Briefly, the report indicate that materials have and still of great assistance to both Pupils and parents as pupils are no longer remaining home because of lack of a geometry maths set and parents are now days spending less on scholastic materails as some of them can be provided at school.

Lastly, four community schools have submitted their scholastic material donations to our office and whoever is interested in helping one or all of them is welcome and can contact us on kruralcommunitiesdevorg@yahoo.com.
