August 2017 is an exciting month at Chankhasi School as we patiently await for the results of the first ever primary school leaving exams. At the beginning of the 2016-2017 academic year we were fortunate to be joined by Felix, a standard 8 teacher, who has made it possible to give our learners the skills and tools to sit these exams. We are looking forward to updating you all when the exam results come out!

We’d like to say a huge thank you to the students of Ashville College and volunteers from Open Arms Malawi for visiting us and making July at Chankhasi School very exciting! The enthusiastic guests repainted three classrooms and built our first ever environmentally friendly 'eco-loo'. Mind you, it wasn't all hard labour as they also organised games and fun events for our learners. Thank you and we look forward to working with you again!

To help you overcome the January blues we thought we'd share one of our 2016 highlights. Happy Tuesday to you all and have a good week!

September was an exciting time at Chankhasi as we were visited by Bishop Mackenzie International School (BMIS) who are based in Lilongwe. Their students taught our learners lots of interesting things. At the same time the BMIS students gained many insights into what it is like to be a Chankhasi learner. It was a great time for all and we hope that it will be repeated again soon.
