Library and Office at Mkama Primary School. We are very excited that this project has finally been carried out after years of planning and fundraising. We had hoped to complete it in 2021 but Covid intervened. We perservered and with some unexpected and most welcome, significant donations from individuals, especially a very generous bequeathment from one of our supporters and a large contribution from a Trust, we were able to build this year. We are very grateful to all our benefactors for their support. The building consists of a library and staffroom, both with solar power.This is a first in the area and the whole community is very excited to have such a facility in their midst. To have solar power means the children can study there in the evenings and we can now source computers for the school.. We are liaising with the headteacher to find out what books and other teaching materials are needed for the library. These will be bought in Malawi. The staffroom is a much-needed facility for the teachers as they have not had such a well laid out space before. Thank you so much to everyone who has supported this wonderful endeavour!
The opening of the new library was a joyful occasion that was celebrated with speeches and songs.
The Library is furnished with good quality tables and chairs and books are being built up.
Newly built and delivered classroom desks.
