Out of the horrors of war... Free school in Sinai gives children displaced from Gaza a space of hope

Far from the horrors of war and the scenes of destruction, hundreds of pupils and students displaced from the Gaza Strip are seeking to complete their course of study, benefiting from the Palestinian teacher ' s initiative, Hedel Zarab, in cooperation with colleagues who settled in the city of Arish in the governorate of northern Sinai al-Masri. An Arab began teaching a small group of children inside a rented building. The initiative then evolved into a free school, benefiting some 400 pupils and a student aged between 6 and 18 years, up from about 150 pupils in the first year of establishment.
