Most schools in Dunoon do not have enough space for the number of children attending school each day. Our partner school Pitter Patter also had this problem. The building was both a school and the home of the headmistress Chantel and her family. The school only had three classrooms available for 50 children and 15 babies.
In December 2022 we tackled this problem! We completely rebuilt the entire school and separated the school from the family home. The result speaks for itself! The upper floor is the new home of Chantel, her husband and their three daughters and the entire lower floor is now divided into eight classrooms, four toilets and a kitchen. At the end of March 2023, the construction project was completed and the school was able to celebrate its reopening!
