At the beginning of July, the concrete was poured for the foundation of the first floor.
In order to do this, we bought 70 cubic metres of concrete from a construction company.
It took 21 days for the concrete to dry completely. The bamboo supports and wooden planks were then removed.
Then, in August, the conduits for all the electrical cables in the classrooms were worked out and laid. In addition, all exterior and interior surfaces were plastered.
In early September, our workers started to transported bricks to the upper floor, where the first floor will soon be constructed.
Additionally, by the end of September, ceiling moldings were installed in all classrooms, and the ceiling was primed. Corresponding ceiling elements also found their place in the office rooms.
In the washhouse and cafeteria, ceiling panels and moldings were added to conceal the roof structure.
Furthermore, we have already selected windows for all rooms, which will be installed soon.
On the first day of school after the vacations, the pupils had a trial lesson in the new school building and a short tour of their future school.
An active and successful year for Arise is coming to an end. We would like to thank all our members, friends and other supporters. Without your active help, the further development of our project would not have been possible!
We wish you a wonderful and peaceful Christmas season.
