Karen and Tony Di Marco from Yalding visited Gambia more than 20 years ago and were moved by the sight of children learning outdoors.
Tony said: “We visited the village of Farato and under a mango tree saw a group of children chanting the alphabet back to their teacher.

“We knew we could do something to help. In 1999 we decided to help build two classrooms.
“We now have ten classrooms and have increased enrolment from 100 to 575 pupils between the ages of three to 16.
“We are very proud that our first graduate year passed their external exams, achieving the second highest results in The Gambia.”
To benefit the wider community, they built a 25-metre deep solar-powered well that provides the whole village with water.
They also introduced a successful teacher training sponsorship programme, and have been asked to roll out their reading programme across the country. For more information, visit schoolgambia.org.uk
