Africa-Press – Tanzania. THE Occupational Safety and Health Authority (OSHA) has pledged to extend support to Kambangwa Secondary School in Kinondoni, Dar es Salaam.
The authority has pledged to provide, among others, key learning facilities, including 10 computers, printers, and completion of the school’s perimeter fence.
The assurance was made by OSHA’s Chief Executive Officer, Ms Khadija Mwenda, while gracing the school’s 26th Form Four graduation ceremony on Friday as Guest of Honour.
The lively event, held within the school grounds, featured entertainment, academic displays, and a message of appreciation from the graduating class. It was followed by the school’s performance report presented by Headmistress Ms Angelina Mwakalukila.
Delivering her keynote speech, Ms Mwenda commended teachers, parents, and guardians for their commitment to nurturing the students. She urged the candidates to prepare diligently for their final national examinations due next month.
Ms Mwenda also reassured the school community that OSHA will collaborate with the management to address challenges under the institution’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme.
“The government has directed us to allocate funds to address community challenges. Through our CSR policy, OSHA will help this school complete its fence and provide 10 computers and printers,” she emphasised.
“I also take this opportunity to remind those of you who are eligible voters to participate in the upcoming elections on October 29, so that our country can secure good leaders,” she said.
Expressing gratitude, the Chairperson of the School Board, Mr Mohamed Mawinda, and the Head Prefect, Mr Brian Shirima, thanked OSHA for recognising the school’s pressing needs. They noted that the support would improve academic performance and the welfare of students.
In her report, Ms Mwakalukila commended the government for its free education policy, particularly the provision of science textbooks under the new competency-based curriculum.
“At present, we have no shortage of textbooks. However, despite this progress, the school continues to face challenges such as lack of a library, inadequate computers, worn-out classroom infrastructure, and the incomplete construction of the fence,” she said.
