Tamoo Sankale, the Headmaster at Ololchura Primary School, emailed us on Friday to say that the new classroom the Real Africa Trust has been building for at the school has been completed. He sent some images via his phone showing the building, together with some of the children outside.
The school, adjacent to the Masai Mara reserve, previously had only one functional classroom for nearly 100 pupils. This second classroom will allow more classes to take place in a correct learning environment and away from small outbuildings that were used before in times of wet weather. Otherwise, lessons were taken in the shade of a large fig tree.
The Real Africa Trust’s involvement with the school is long term and we are looking to continue our support with further projects such as electricity generation, water reclamation and the further upgrading of facilities. Watch this space.
