The Maria Fishing Company donated toiletries to Eluwa Resource School in the Oshana region, valued at N$50,000.

Eluwa Resource School provides specialised education and care to children with visual, intellectual, and hearing impairments. 

Rain, coupled with strong winds, caused damage to Sauyemwa Junior Primary and Ruben Makaranga Combined School at Rundu; both the roofs at the neighbouring schools' administration blocks were blown off on Tuesday night.

Concerns are being raised by Medical Laboratory Science students at the Namibia University of Science and Technology (NUST) over admission requirements, progression into third year and limited work-integrated learning placements. 

Eenhana VTC Centre Manager Junias Jacob says Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) institutions have the capacity to develop the skills needed to support Namibia's emerging industries.

The Works and Transport Minister, Veikko Nekundi, says maritime excellence cannot remain a slogan but must create skills, businesses, jobs and opportunities for future generations.
