Project 2 Year 2008 - Village School Aid Delivery

2. Village School (156 children at present)
Parts of the school were in reasonable good condition but other areas poor, we were shown the Gym where some of the floor had collapsed. (not good for 5 a-side and ankle injuries )They asked about the possibilities of building a small store room accessible from the double doors from the Gym whereby they could safely store Gym kit.
Whilst there we were shown the toilet block – must admit I used it (any port in a storm), It was terrible (I’ve seen quite a few places with poor conditions over the years – this was bad). They asked if it was possible to make them more hygienic?Particular mention was made of the path out the front of the school where a small child had died of head injuries when he tripped on the uneven surface and bashed his head.
Some decorating required with building work on the older school building as well as replacing / repairing electrics – they were hoping that a more energy / cost efficient method of lighting the classrooms etc. could be provided. Some interim work is planned for here with the main work becoming our project for 2009. A full survey can be carried out by whilst there during 2008!
