The Bottrop Project has recently distributed 200 face masks and COVID-19 prevention messages to Kindergartens and sensitises parents on the use of the face masks.

Pa Haruna Jagana, head teacher of Bottrop Kindergarten in Brikama thanked their German sponsors for support the kindergartens. "These face masks and prevention messages are very vital and timely because the most vulnerable age during this global crisis is the Kindergartens."

He said schools are currently closed but immediately when they reopen every child will be taught on the prevention messages.

President of Shine Light in Girls Education, Ebrima Fadera said children must be prevented from contracting coronavirus because what countries learnt from the Ebola outbreak is that children are the most vulnerable and are likely to experience violence, abuse and neglect during pandemic as families struggle to cope.
