Well behaved but one students is just too tired!

The school has some old bits of equipment.

Friendly smiles

The school is a very bare building with little in the way of resources

Not a lot of space at playtime!

Work currently underway to build two new classrooms - the result of some previous fund-raising

Ready for work!
