Construction update February 11

Everything is practically finished for the beginning of classes this year, scheduled for the 25th. The towels and paper hangs were fixed, all the rooms and toilets have lighting and the classroom has two ventilators to refresh the environment. The windows were painted on bright blue, bringing some happiness around. The constructor, Mr Iraci, who shows the shower functioning, decided to go after more donations and painted the ceiling of the old varanda on white, is building an improvised library and painted the new classroom in two colors. Just to remind: this project built a new room to serve as nursery for the youger kids, giving space in the old one (now very colorful) to the fourth graders.
lavatories (to come a donation of a water drinking fountain, already ordered)

The ceiling received a white paint. Check the new drainage for the roof.

The kids' bathroom ready for use

Mr Iraci, the man in charge, donates his spare time for this construction, shows the shower functioning. Note that we are in our carnaval holliday, and he spends all his minutes on site.

Now some extras: a campaign headed by two central bank's colleagues allowed them to achieve the school material for the year! Today we went to the kids' shelter and distributed the backpacks filled with bright new school stuff. Check their faces!
