Vanuatu education ministry to donate to Fiji disaster relief

The Vanuatu Ministry of Education and Training has raised over $US32,000 dollars to assist schools and children of Fiji affected by Cyclone Winston.

The Ministry, through its Pikinini Flash Appeal initiative, raised the money in contributions from schools, their pupils, other bodies and the public at large.

The education minister, Jean Pierre Nirua, is to hand the money to his counterpart organisation in Fiji when he visits there later this month.
