About the Project
As of 2018, Ringa Primary School had approx. 500 students. The school offers a meal program for all the ECD students and the Class 7 and 8 students. The ECD students receive a porridge snack in the morning and then are provided with lunch along with classes 7 and 8. The food for this meal, as well as the cost of hiring a cook, is contributed by the parents. Due to the poor conditions of the current kitchen, lack of sufficient light and proper ventilation, A Better World along with community contributions are planning to build a new kitchen. The construction of this kitchen will allow the school to implement a more substantial feeding program. Children who are fed at school are more likely to stay in school and are able to perform better academically.
