Athwood Primary dreams of a Resource Centre
Every gift given to our various schools on the Link of Love programme, is received with deep gratitude. Whether it is days of work, items of clothing or household goods, nothing goes to waste in this community.

Principal Gavin Alkana envisions his new resource centre at Athwood Primary School
New principal, Gavin Alkana is filled with hope for his school. “Our school is still seen to be lagging by the Department of Education. They wanted to close us down a few years ago and we have battled to keep going, but keep going we shall!”
Gavin dreams of a Resource and Aftercare Centre at the school. “It will be a place where teachers can prepare work, where kids can have access to computers and learning material and where those children who have no place at home to do homework in peace, can sit in a quiet environment.
The sign may be fading, but the spirit of Athwood is strong!
We have recently been donated a few computers from a company that upgraded theirs, but we need some printers in good working order. So if you are upgrading, please pass yours on to us!”
