The project involved the construction of a modern block comprising six classrooms, each equipped with state-of-the-art educational tools. This initiative aims to provide a conducive learning environment for the pupils of Avrugo and to elevate the educational experience to a new level. The classrooms are furnished with durable plastic tables and chairs, offering a comfortable and organized setting for students. Additionally, the provision of textbooks and notebooks ensures that pupils have the necessary resources to support their learning journey.
Teachers at St. Mary’s Primary School are also beneficiaries of this project, receiving instructional materials to aid in the delivery of effective teaching. These materials are designed to enhance the educational process, providing teachers with the tools they need to engage students and foster a dynamic classroom environment.
