Physically challenge people face many difficulties in life because sometimes they are treated badly. Most of them, especially the children are not even able to learn in regular schools. University teaching hospital is one institution that gives physically challenged kids a chance to be in school. Every child has the right to learn in a good and healthy environment but even with this right, many children in Zambia do not enjoy their right. This is because most children are vulnerable and their parents can not afford to take them to schools that have better learning facilities. These children are from Robert dean basic school Chongwe district. The class rooms do not have enough desks for the pupils to sit on and this causes other pupils to sit on the floor. After learning about the problem that the children face, the Lusaka north lions club decided to come to the aid of these pupils. They have decided to adopt the school. This means that they will make sure that they develop the school for the pupils. We spoke to some pupils at the school and they told us how they felt now that they were going to have desks in their classrooms We also spoke to lion Nicky, the chairman for the Lusaka north lions club and he told us more on what they plan on doing
