Rainbows 4 Children
About Rainbows 4 Children
Rainbows4children (R4C), a Swiss and UK foundation was set up in memory of Nicolas Robinson, the son of the founder, Max Robinson. With the support of the Tigray Disabled Veterans' Association (TDVA), an Ethiopian NGO, R4C founded the Nicolas Robinson School (NRS) in 2005, in Mekelle, to educate the children of disabled war veterans of the Ethiopian civil war (1974-91). The School was constructed to accommodate up to 1500 students from kindergarten to grade 12 (university entrance). It is a non-profit school focusing on giving the best possible opportunities to the most disadvantaged. We follow the National Curriculum and prepare our students for the Ethiopian Higher Education University Entrance Exam which is taken in Grade 12. The NRS is a technology-rich learning environment with an emphasis on the hard sciences. ICT classes are introduced as early as Grade 1, and Coding is taught from grade 9 on. The high school has a fully staffed IT lab with computers as well as 3 modern science labs. The Nicolas Robinson School is recognised as the best school in the region, based on its high-quality teaching, and its facilities and management systems.
