WARONGOI ELEMENTARY RECIEVES DIGITAL LIBRARY KIT & SOLAR LIGHTS!
Today the our team successfully delivered a Digital Library and 200 Solar Buddy Lights to the students in Warongoi Elementary School. Members of the community and parents flocked the school to see this life changing event.
The Digital Library of 40 tablets consists of over 700 reading books and a majority of these books have been written by PNG writers. The Solar Buddy Lights on the other hand are palm sized lights which were built by kids for kids. These lights can stay long hours even if they have been charged for a short period of time.
The school has been operating without a Library and the teachers have faced challenges with reading materials and in preparing daily lessons for the children. This delivery is a major game changer and we hope to have the standard of learning improve for the children in the area.
We are grateful and we really appreciate the support given to us by KTF , BSP Financial Group Limited , Mundango Abroad, Library for All, SolarBuddy.org, Westpac PNG, the Pomio District Office, the ENB Provincial Education Office, the local community and our families and friends who supported this project!
