School news

Finally, we are able to buy the last room in the school area. We actually bought two others last week, but now we are able to get a school with all rooms in one block. It makes it easier to build one house for almost all of the school. This will also make it easier to fence in. The problem is that we need to raise a lot of money to rebuild the new block with proper rooms. We might be able to reuse some of the corrugated iron sheets, but we still have to cast concrete floors. almost everywhere. Some of our Swedish friends are taking care of the staff room, fixing it up so I can put the nice desks I got from the Swedish society there, but we still need to start planning for the major construction. It's going to take about a million kes, and I don't have nearly that amount. Even with the upcoming Christmas drive, I doubt that we'll be able to raise that kind of cash. I guess the solution to the problem is to build in phases, but that is quite inefficient when it's going to be cheaper to build the whole thing at one time. I guess I'll have to check with the Swedish girls how much they made so far... and maybe make an extra plea to my current donors. We will also need a few more toilets, so that will be an extra expense.
