This photo was taken a few weeks ago, when the school was nearly finished. Since then, the windows and doors have been painted and the choo (toilets) have been completed. We have purchased new chairs and tables for the children, as well as new desks for the teachers. We have also bought new school supplies for all of the students and continue to maintain the daily lunch program.

Liana Leyrer is returning to Kenya in June and will continue to improve the interior of the school and focusing on improving the quality of education. She will be able to update us with new pictures of the school very soon!

The "Opening Ceremony" was celebrated by bringing together all of the children and their families, the teachers, and a few other community members. Teacher Jane announced the official opening of the school to everyone in attendance by cutting the ribbon in front of the two classrooms.

After a lot of singing and dancing, the ceremony concluded with the children and their families planting 43 new trees surrounding the school's compound.

The children and their parents, the teachers, and all of us here at Longonot Education would like to thank each and every person who donated and made all of this possible. Thank you so much!
