"A good head and good heart are always a formidable combination. But when you add to that a literate tongue or pen, then you have something very special." - Nelson Mandela
As a fully Zambian-run lodge, our mission is to ensure that the communities we live beside on the Zambezi benefit from our existence - whether through our community programmes, employment or schooling. Empowering the people we work with - and just as importantly, their children - is vital. Through setting up the Royal Chundu Foundation School, we hope to help shape their lives positively and to transform the future of the country for the better.
Our school provides the foundation for these brighter futures. At our very own community school, between the trees around the lodge, we currently educate up to three grades of children, from four to six years and we do so using the educational benefits of modern technology… Here our students learn the entire Zambian curriculum on tablets, giving them access to the digital universe otherwise unknown to them.
During your stay with us, we welcome you to meet with our pupils and teachers on a visit to the school to see the powerful work being done for yourself.
