Hello friends and as you know, if you have been reading my daily surf and weather reports that is. That on the 28th of March I was back up for another visit to our school project. And I must say we have been making some ground since the project appeal started off at the end of last year.
Just to bring ya’s up to date on what we have done so far.
1/ We brought electricity to the school
2/ provided 100 English / Indonesian dictionaries.
3/ provided a car full of stationary / pens / pencils etc
4/ sports equipment and clothing.
And now we are in mid way of having the wall that surrounds the school yard repaired. Along with a new gate and the widening of the entry / exit area so the kids don’t have to line up to get out of school. When I was there last the school had 6 workers on the restoration of the fence. But the going has been slow due to quite a few ceremonies happening since the work began. But talking to the teachers they reckoned that this job should be completed by the end of April.
Then we will see how much captital is still remaining and hopefully we will have enough left to at least start the paving on the school assembly area. But we will take it one step at a time and I’ll let ya’s know how we stand as we go. Unfortunately all my original estimates for the completion of each objective were way off…. But anyway I’ll keep everyone upto date as promised and my next visit up to the school will be on the 23rd of April.
Thanks again for your consideration of the kids at Datah Primary School.
Best Regards
Slim
