New building

The new school building replaces the IA building, which was damaged by Tropical Cyclone Gita in 2018.

There are three classrooms and a storeroom, at a value of TOP$627,467.37

The construction was carried out under the Pacific Resilience Programme (PREP) project led by the Ministry of Meteorology, Energy, Information, Disaster Management, Environment Climate Change and Communications (MEIDECC) and co-funded by the World Bank and the  Australian Government.

The Australian High Commissioner, Adrian Morrison commissioned the new building which accommodates three classrooms.

“Some countries have large deposits of minerals or they have access to rich fishing grounds or they have vast tracks of fertile land,” Mr Morrison said.
