More than a Nursery School
The term has ended after three weeks of operation. It's time for holidays!
As the teacher and the kids head home for the break, the Buhugu Education Centre is not all that quiet. During the two week long vacation, which coincides with other schools in the area, BEC is offering a "remedial programme" for about ten students who are currently enrolled in a nearby primary school - Bumatofu Primary.
This is an experiment in using the resources at our disposal towards improving the quality of education in Buhugu.
It is also a way for both us and the community to think about whether we want to grow from a nursery school into a primary school - whether delivering quality primary education is a challenge we want to and feel capable of taking on.
