Mahmoud Achten Nursery School
Mahmoud Achten Nursery School is one of the many schools in The Gambia which is now being helped by Pageant. Pageant members, John Emery and Jane Bull, have been supporting this school for over a year, and have achieved some great improvements, including new toilets, with mains water brought to the school for the first time. A lot still needs to be done. The school needs a new roof, the walls need repairing, the fence needs replacing and the school is short of teaching aids. Many of the children's parents are too poor to pay the modest fees, so headmaster Abdoul Kassim Mahmoud subsidises them from his own pocket.Read more about this school on this Pageant page, and please help then by making an online donation.
