Our children are very excited and can’t wait for his next visit and the next stage of their creations! As many people can see, our school grounds is undergoing major renova- tion; the School Construction Authority is working hard and has begun to build. In just another year or two—we will get a much needed extension to our school building. We’re so excited! Art
