Following the morning assembly, students line up and walk single file into their classrooms at the Silwanetshe Primary School in Willowfontein, South Africa. Children are eager for an education in this community. Families view education as a way to break the cycle of poverty. Many families are not able to afford the annual fees because of the high unemployment rate in the community.
