Schools In

It would appear that the school our project team is building has slipped under the radar on my BLOG so I thought I’d give an update : Consisting of three buildings (6 classrooms, library and staff room plus a latrine block) for 164 primary school students the school will replace a temporary structure that has six rooms where they jam pack the kids in and the youngest class studies under the palm leaf patio (see picture above). The school project has taken centre stage this week. After a slow start to work in July (the school project had been stopped for security reasons for about three months) it has become apparent that the timeframe for the school project is extremely tight. As such I have spent much of the last week looking at programming of activities and in consultation with Yudha and Jean-Francois about how we can accelerate the program. The supervisors working on the school have come to the fore too, there has been a noticeable step up in energy on site (see photos below). With some reasonable weather this will be completed in October.
