The school in 1996

"Stichting OldTafo scholenproject" has helped streetchildren in the slums of Kumasi in Ghana to go to school since 1996. "Old-Tafo" is the name of the district in Kumasi where the school is. The founders are from Rockanje and surroundings, hence the name "Rockanjeschool". In Ghana the school is also known as "Rockanje Presbyterian Experimental Basic School" or "Rockpres".
