The school does not have standard classrooms and fence. Learners learn in tents and semi-traditional shelters. There are no toilets for neither learners nor teachers at this school. There is also a learner who needs special help, who uses crutches to move because one of his legs was amputated following a snake bite when he was still younger. A wheelchair would not help much due to the remoteness of the environment.

The school have serious shortage of standard classrooms. Grades 5 and 6 attend lessons in traditionally built “classrooms”. In some other grades, there many learners in each classroom than normally expected. The school is also not fenced despite that community members have in the past unsuccessfully tried to make financial contributions to buy school fence. Majority of learners at this school walk close to ten (10) to school and stay without food for lunch before going back into classes for afternoon sessions.

Most of the schools in which GFOSF have supported orphaned learners are closer to standard or tarred roads except for Isize Combined school, so they are easily accessible. These schools are not so remote compared to many others we have not reached. We are willing to reach out to more school particularly in remote areas but transport is a problem because the organisation does not have a vehicle of its own, and in some cases the roads to such schools are very bad.

Our new office is not well equipped in terms of administrative and communication facilities. We only have one notebook (laptop) and a single 3 in 1 printer. We do not have a fax and a fixed (land line) telephone in our office.
