They're here!

Students and teachers...are now on campus! Almost 400 students are walking an hour or two less a day to get to school since they relocated to Ntulya Primary School after it officially opened around July 10th. It's exciting to have the houses being lived in and classrooms being studied in after all the effort we've been through to get them built!
Next-up: "Health Post." We're just finishing up plans for the next Africa Schoolhouse project in Ntulya. A "Health Post" is a clinic where basic medical aid such as first aid, treatment of common diseases, and pre-natal care will be provided.

If you build it...

The school year in Tanzania starts in January so we're hoping that students and teachers may start to utilize the buildings that are finished. The school is not finished but with two teacher houses complete, a latrine for students, one for teachers, and five classrooms complete with windows and doors we hope that the facilities can start to be used. It should be exciting to have students and teachers on campus!
