Completed : NAIKARRA PRIMARY SCHOOL – New Kitchen

About the Project

The Naikarra Primary School accommodates both boarding and daily attending students for Grades 1-8. There are 680 (363 Boys and 317 Girls) boarding students who rely on the kitchen facility at the school for their daily meals. 

The current kitchen is poorly ventilated. It also does not have a sink, water system or plumbing. This requires the staff to carry containers of water to tidy the kitchen and wash the dishes from a bucket each day. A new kitchen with proper ventilation, plumbing, and a water system will allow the implementation of an improved feeding program. The new kitchen will greatly benefit the students and the kitchen staff.
