Restore Foundation for Child Sight Initiative We are proud that our school was selected by the Restore Foundation for Child Sight, an NGO focused on children’s eye health. After initial staff training by the foundation, our team conducted an eye screening for all our royals. Children needing further evaluation were referred to specialists, and three learners received free eyeglasses. This initiative highlights our commitment to the health and well-being of our children.
