Helping Education in Africa - Reaching Together (Spring 2009 update)
Written by RSCJ.org Admin   
Tuesday, 21 April 2009
class-th.jpgDear Sacred Heart Students and Supporters, In 2002 when the first building of our primary school started to take shape there were some inquisitive village children visiting the site each day fascinated by what was happening.  Imagine now with 441 sets of eyes checking on the daily progress of the construction activity for the classroom block. By the Feast of Mater, thanks to the generosity of our faithful friends, we were a good way along towards our $500,000 construction goal. So it was thought best to break ground and begin construction and go as far as possible with the funds on hand- for the longer we wait the more expensive the project will be. Hopefully by February 2010 there will be an academic block for the fourteen classrooms and a much less congested dormitory area. The excitement and joy at our school would surely  warm your good hearts.
