The Rotary Club of Chilanga has commended government for efforts being made in the advancement of science and technology in the country.
Rotary Club Chilanga chapter President, Henry Kando, said science and technology plays an important role to economic growth of developing countries like Zambia.
Mr. Kando was speaking when his club handed over a donation of more than 500 Science and Mathematics text books to Parklands High School in Chilanga today.
The club President has since challenged stakeholders to supplement government’s efforts in advancing science and technology for the country to record positive growth in the investment sector.
Mr. Kando further urged the school authority to ensure that the books are used to meet the intended purpose of equipping pupils with the necessary knowledge on the importance of science and technology.
Receiving the donation, Parklands School Head teacher, Loveness Sakufiwa thanked the club for the donation and said the books are an important resource to the development of young people.

Wow! thats a lot of books…but the question is, is there a library at the school or are they going to keet them in the headmasters office? Please preserve the books.
Good stuff! Especially when the economic crunch is on, we are busy investing in Science an tec. thats the way forward.
Ba LT ,LT Lions club and Rotary club are two very different clubs , it’s like Ba M M D and PF
The donation is a noble idea. To bring out the best in science and technology among the nation, invent Zambia competition should be launched. To serve as a platform for founding cottage and manufacturing industries. It’s not hard and it’s not easy. It was done before but didn’t go far.
