HUNDREDS of community members gathered at Kalama Prinary School in Mazabuka District on Thursday to celebrate the completion of a round hut built as learning space for preschool learners. The highlight of the event was the presence of among others, the Roger Federer Foundation CEO, His Royal Highness Chief Mwanachingwala, Magoye Member of Parliament, the District Commissioner, Southern Provincial Education Officer, and ZOCS Executive Director. The message remains that children need to be prepared for school and schools should be ready for children thus ZOCS is implementing a seven year School Readiness Initiative aimed at promoting Early Childhood Education.
