Children from four years of age and youths up to 25 years old learn to sing, dance, play music, act, make videos and television programmes, communicate, gain and build confidence through criticism among other things.

Chipawo addresses the key issues that concern the welfare and development of children through arts.

“We will teach all schools who want to join Chipawo various skills like traditional dances. Headmasters from various primary schools are also expected to attend. We are happy that Chipawo has finally come to Mutare,” she said.
