OBSERVATIONS
- The Team observed that although the children were coming from poor families, yet they were keenly interested to seek education in school.
- The Machero ki Basti School is located on the river side and children were sitting on the ground as no desks and chairs were available for them and the teacher as well.
- The other 3 schools of Thal Khushab are located in the deserted area. No desks were available for the students but the children were ambitious to continue their studies.
- Although, a lot of facilities could be arranged at the local level, yet there was a little contribution of the local administration and influential persons of the area.
- Self-projection in the newspapers was evident with a little interest of contributing and donating furniture and other basic needs to the school going children and their poor families.
CONCLUSION
The villagers of the area were very happy with the NCHD program “Feeder School” as the schools are promoting education to their children even under unfavorable weather conditions and other facilities.
They appreciated the efforts of Shaantech who offered them Solar Roshni Lantern which is very useful as no fuel/energy is used to get their houses and surrounding illuminated. They told that their children used these lights to study at their home.
The NCHD schools management and influential people of the area need to focus and provide the children basic facilities which they could easily do at their own.
The NCHD officials (Mr Umer Daraz and Team ) was Thankful to “Mr Pervaiz Lodhie “ , “Shahid Siddique” and Shaan Technologies Pvt Ltd team members for their continuous support and offering solar powered lantern to the Feeder Schools of their area.
