BARE POVERTY: A majority of the learners at Naingopo Primary School in Kavango West's Ncuncuni Constituency do not have proper school shoes or school uniforms. Some of them walk a combined 10 to 15 kilometres to and from school every day. The school has 66 learners only, offering grades 0 to 3 lessons. According to teachers at the school, the majority of the learners are from poor backgrounds, hence their call for Good Samaritans to assist the learners with proper school uniforms. Naingopo Primary School is situated around 90 kilometres from Rundu. PHOTO:
