Girls from an all-girls secondary school (high school) greeted us with a orginal poem relating how much has happened at their school because of World Vision and others who are investing in them. The school started in 1988 but was shut down after just one year because of finances- in 2003 World Vision stepped in as a partner.In 2003 the school consisted of one room and the girls boarded in the principle's own home with the principle renting a room elsewhere to make room for the girls.
Now in 2007 the school has 3 classrooms (including the science lab), a teacher's workroom, a boarding room that sleeps 103 girls, and a kitchen. Currently a shower/lavatory is being built (presently the girls are using an outside shower area). The hope for this coming year is to build a dining hall- as they eat outside right now.
