We set off to see school number 1 at Moyamba. This is a new school that was built by St Mary and St Paul first school, Harting. We were welcomed by the head Mr Raymond A W Davies. The school was a simple building with four classrooms and an office for the head. Unfortunately it wasn’t quite finished the whole school need painting and eventually a toilet block built.
After I had spent some time with Mr Raymond I had a walk down to what remained of the old school. It was essentially a mud hut that had washed away. It was probably only 6m x 15m. The school has 131 students over 6 school years so if you can imagine, it would have been a tight squeeze.

Only just read this, but, as Head of St Mary & St Paul's, it is great to read about the improvements in building that you have seen, Iain. We are currently trying to get a grant application together to send a teacher over next Easter and bring Raymond back in the summer. Fingers crossed!
Good luck with the rest of your visit.
