TAARIFA YA PONGEZI

Uongozi wa Shule ya Msingi Jeshi la Wokovu unatoa pongezi za dhati kwa mwanafunzi wetu ambaye amepata heshima ya kualikwa kushiriki katika maadhimisho ya Yanga Day.

Mafanikio haya ni ishara ya vipaji, nidhamu, na juhudi zake, na pia ni fahari kwa shule yetu. Tunamtakia kila la heri na mafanikio makubwa katika uwakilishi wake, huku akiendelea kuwa mfano bora kwa wanafunzi wenzake.

Mungu ambariki na ampe hekima, ujasiri, na mafanikio katika kila hatua.

WE GIVE THANKS TO GOD FOR THIS GREAT MILESTONE! 🙏

We thank God for the continued progress of the sports ground construction project at Matumaini School. This facility is being developed to provide our children with a safe and inspiring environment for sports, physical fitness, and talent development.

The new multi-purpose sports ground will accommodate three sports on one court:
⚽ Football
🏐 Netball
🎾 Tennis

Today, we received important construction materials to support the project:
✅ 70 bags of cement
✅ Steel poles for installing the perimeter fencing and surrounding nets.

We sincerely thank everyone who has contributed to making this project a reality. Your generosity and support are helping us create a better future for our children by providing them with quality recreational and sporting facilities.

Together, we are building hope, nurturing talent, and investing in the next generation.

To God be all the glory!

🎉 It’s time to meet our Team Sally Army for the TCS London Marathon

First up… meet Eryn! 👟✨

🏃‍♀️ Eryn shared: “I’m really excited to be running the London Marathon this year. It’s something I’ve always wanted to do. I started as a complete beginner who couldn’t run 1k without stopping – and now I’m running half marathons!” 💪

This challenge is especially meaningful for Eryn. Not only is she physically challenging herself, she’s running in support of Matumaini School for Children Living with Disability, run by The Salvation Army in .

❤️ The school holds a special place in her family - Eryn’s grandparents spent time living in Tanzania, and the stories they shared about the people and made a lasting impression. By running the marathon, Eryn is honouring their legacy while helping support children at the school. ✨

And a special little detail Eryn shared:
🎂 "I’m 26
🏃‍♀️ Running 26.2 miles
📅 On 26 April 2026
It really does feel like the perfect year to run the marathon!” 🏅

👏 Thank you, Eryn for being part of Team Sally Army and taking on this iconic challenge. We’re cheering you on every step of the way! 📣🔥

🏃‍♀️ Let's go !👟
