Completed : MWENJA COMPREHENSIVE SCHOOL – 4 Classroom Renovation Phase 2

About the Project

Mwenja Comprehensive School (formerly Mwenja Primary School) is well established and supported, but the buildings are old without good maintenance. Of the eight older classrooms, four were in especially bad condition, both inside and out, and were renovated earlier this year.  With those completed, we are now ready to complete the block so that all eight classrooms will be brought up to the same standard. This second phase of renovation would provide new roofing, plastered walls with new blackboards, floor repairs, replacement of doors and windows, and a fresh coat of paint. These renovations will offer smooth, safer floors, and walls that allow visual aids to be posted and reflective surfaces to make the room brighter.
