See a report by Wendy Griffin of VSA, on rebuilding early childhood education in Vanuatu in the aftermath of Cyclone Pam.

“In two Provinces, many Kindergartens have not been rebuilt and remain under tarpaulin, tents or in temporary shelter.

We had some fantastic news last week though. Victoria University Students Association in Wellington has raised some funds for Vanuatu with advice and encouragement from Dr Pala Molisa, a lecturer from Vanuatu based in Wellington.

With the support of the University, Volunteer Service Abroad, the NZ Ministry of Education and the Vanuatu Early Childhood Care and Education Unit, funds will be allocated to the building of a multi-purpose, model kindergarten, resource library and field-based teacher training centre on Tanna.”
