The animals of the St Paul’s school pedagogical farm, Leribe – Lesotho

The Ivory Foundation has been supporting the St Paul’s School for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing in Lesotho since 2015.
An educational farm has been set up within the school, combining animal husbandry and market gardening to provide the school with a varied and balanced diet for the 240 children on the one hand, but also to give the older students, interested in this activity, or sometimes failing at school, the opportunity to develop a skill that could lead to a professional orientation.
This project has been a great success. The young people enjoy their contact with the farm animals, cows, pigs, sheep and chickens, which they take good care of.
The wool is also a resource to finance the running of the farm.
