Kawaza School Update Sept. 27, 2007

The 2007 building projects are on a roll! We have now completed two teaching houses at Kawaza, the classroom block at Nsefu is halfway through and will be finished in the next couple of weeks.

Kawaza Teacher's house
Two teachers' houses have been completed and ready for the teachers to move in. In fact one house is already occupied with two teachers who are enjoying their new accommodation.

Nsefu Classroom Block 1x3
This project is halfway through - with only the roofing and final finishing touches needing to be completed.

Nsefu Teacher's house
This house is moving along steadily, the builders have reached about window level, so are almost halfway through completion of the building. The teachers at Nsefu opted for a one 3 bedroom house, rather than two 2 bedroom houses.

Kapita Classroom block 1x3

Most of the materials have been delivered and the foundation has been started, we are only for waiting a few more materials for the project to continue at a brisk pace.

All of the above projects are in good standing and should be completed before the end of 2007.

Due to recent generous donations we have been able to start a couple of the 2008 building projects early. These are the storeroom at Katapilla Community School and the Volunteers' House at Kawaza Basic School.

Katapilla Storeroom.
Most of the materials have been delivered and are being stored at a secure location at Kawaza Basic School. Materials will be transported over daily for construction of bricks and daily building requirements.

Kawaza Volunteer house
Most of the materials have been delivered and building has commenced. The foundations are expected to be completed shortly.

Jo Pope of Robin Pope Safaris extends her thanks to all the people who have supported the building projects this year.
