    About the Program

    The lack of adequate schooling facilities is a huge problem in Victoria Falls, especially at primary school level (ages 6 - 13). With an ever-growing population and high number of children making up this population, primary schools are often over-crowded, understaffed and lack the necessary infrastructure and resources to provide a solid and well-rounded education service.

    School classrooms often see a teacher to student ratio of 1:45 (1 teacher for every class of 45 students). As a direct result of this, schools focus almost 100% on the academic side of things. Having volunteers at these schools enables them to offer additional activities such as sport, art and music. Students who are struggling in class can then also get the individual attention that they require.

These falls, located on the border between Zambia to the north and Zimbabwe to the south, are known to locals as Mosi-oa-Tunya (“The Smoke That Thunders”) - they have since given rise to Victoria Falls town (Zimbabwe). With a population of approx. 36 000, the town’s economy is heavily dependent on the tourism industry.
