South African Projects

Westburn Parish Church is a strong supporters of the Vhutshilo Mountain School in Venda, South Africa. 

On Saturday 10 May 2025 a very successful coffee morning was held in the church to commemorate the 20th Anniversary of the opening of school in . The proceeds from the event will help us continue to support their work with the children at the school.

There are currently 121 students at the school and formal learning in the classroom is going very well.

The school building has been around since 2005, and the outside brick needed to be plastered as it was starting to have cracks. The school are happy to announce that thanks to a donation from a couple celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary the school building was plastered with cement in September 2024.
