Victoria Falls Primary School is fairly isolated in terms of distances involved in competing with other schools of similar abilities and standard. Due to the dis- tances involved the school bus travels extensively. A proportional size of the budget is allocated towards ensuring that the children are adequately exposed to this healthy competition. Accommodation and travelling costs are built into the school fees and budget. Therefore children are expected to travel to com- pete when required.
