She added it was important for local businesses to do their bit in helping out within the community.
“We need to show the learners that we care about them by developing the basic amenities they use regularly, and schools are that place.

The school’s principal, George Ngoma, expressed his gratitude.
“We are proud to have received so much-needed supplies from various people with the help of the broadcast team.
“It is fascinating to find out that people are willing to help when you shout.
