Tiyende School prepares for next semester

Tiyende is the Andiamo Education Institution that train young women in Home Management skill to enable them to be independent in the society. It also empowers them to recognize their rights and the role they have to play in the country at large.

As the Institution is expecting to start another academic semester next year, it could not remain idol and let its resources and man power to become unproductive as such. In such circumstance, Tiyende is doing a lot of activities to improve its status. The Institution has ventured into a massive production and selling of juices made from locally available materials (Malambe and M’bwemba). Not only these, but there are also some desired items from Crocheting and knitting sections. These are short trouser (for children under 10), dresses, cushions, small bags among others. The only problem they are facing is lack of raw materials for more products. They wanted also to be making cakes if the materials were available.

It does not only rely on indoor activities hence it has maize and cabbage gardens. They are expecting to harvest the cabbage in two weeks time where as maize field have to wait until early December.

At the Institution, there are many activities that are supposed to be carried out and all these can not be managed by the teaching staff only. They work as a team in order to ensure that the work is done in a quick manner of which is composed of six teachers with Mrs. Useni as Principal, two gate men, two watchmen, two garden men, four cooks and two tailors.

The Institution has started investing its money obtained from products sales at Andiamo Campus main Office. This is the great achievement that the Institution can smile at as Mrs. Useni put it. But they could not fold have because they have achieved something, but Institution has dreams of learning how to work with decorated pieces of clothes using paints of they are sure to get that skill from Madalitso Ziwawo (Cooperative Artist) who is currently in Italy for further training. They also would also love if one of their teachers would have gone at MACOHA for additional skills in wood activities.

Tiyende School graduates about fifty students each year.
