Additional materials were procured on Monday and the nursery has been roofed again. The final phase of its construction can now commence.

With the painting done, the crew just needs to finish up the breezeblocks and poles.

A graduate of a Village X school, now studying at the Polytechnic University in Blantyre, is adding artwork to show his support.

The painting of the classroom is in progress and should be completed early next week. The breeze blocks were not prepared correctly and are currently being traded out for stronger ones. Some of the existing masonry supports will be replaced with steel poles to provide greater structural integrity.

Construction on the nursery has been delayed by a series of funerals in the community, but the chief hopes that the doors and windows will be finished by the end of next week.
