A N$1.14 million administration block has brought an end to more than four decades of inadequate office space at Muketela Primary School in the Zambezi region, where teachers and school management have been operating from a single room since the school was established in 1982.

The school, which serves about 140 learners in the remote Bamunu Conservancy in the Sibbinda Constituency, officially received the new facility last week through the NamPort Social Investment Fund.

The administration block which has been funded through the NamPort Social Investment Fund at a cost of N$1,141,639, includes a principal’s office, reception area, staffroom, storeroom and connecting passage, replacing the makeshift office that had served as the school’s administrative centre for decades.

The school’s principal Olga Puteho said the new facility represents far more than just a building, describing it as a symbol of hope, dignity and progress for the entire school community.
