Raising the roof!

The new Kasompe classroom block is rising!  The foundation was dug a couple of weeks ago, the foundation is in, and we're on the move to raise the roof before January.  The classrooms seen in the background are the first 4 constructed.  The new wing will add 3 more classrooms plus a special room designated for the tireless Kafwa health workers.  Everyone is thrilled!

For you detailed oriented people, don't panic thinking the trenches are misplaced and heading smack toward the middle of the existing building.  The trench is actually for the footings of the veranda which will connect the two classroom blocks.

The Kasompe school is about 2 hours drive from the Chipulukusu school.  The first Kasompe 7th grade students will graduate next month and we're eager to see if they meet the quality challenges set by their sister school in Chipulukusu.
