Belmopan, Tuesday, June 16th, 2026

On Tuesday, June 16, 2026, Gales Point Government School held an inauguration ceremony for a new ferro-concrete elevated water tank support with a 600-US-gallon tank, generously funded by the 𝗕𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘇𝗲 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁 (𝗕𝗡𝗘𝗖𝗧).

This project proposal was developed in response to the school’s long-standing water challenges. Reliable access to water is essential in any school setting, as it supports sanitation, hygiene, food preparation, cleaning, and the overall health and well-being of students and teachers.

This project also will better position Gales Point Government School to qualify for the Healthy Start Feeding Program. A reliable water supply is necessary to maintain proper hygiene, sanitation, and food preparation standards. As a result, the benefits of this project extend beyond the structure itself, supporting student nutrition, health, attendance, and learning.

Work on this important initiative began in March 2026, and more than $43,000 has been invested to provide a sustainable solution to this long-standing issue.

“Today is more than the opening of a new structure. It is a celebration of partnership, commitment, and progress. It also serves as a reminder of what can be achieved when a school community identifies a need, seeks support, and works together toward a meaningful solution,” said Ms. Melissa Andrade, General Manager for Government Schools.

Community leaders from Gales Point Village, along with the principal, staff, and students; the Chairman and staff of BNECT; and representatives of the Ministry of Education attended the inauguration ceremony and delivered remarks.

Another classroom renovation was successfully completed for Carmelita Government School located in Carmelita Village, Orange Walk District. The handing over ceremony was held on Wednesday, January 14th, 2026. In attendance were the Board of Directors and staff of the Belize Natural Energy Charitable Trust (BNECT), the Principal, teachers, students, Ministry of Education officials as well as other invited guests. This renovation project reflects the Trust’s commitment to continue the empowerment of Belizeans through education.

The generous contribution of over $71,000.00 towards materials and labor facilitated the restoration of the two-classroom building that has been in existence for 17 years, ensuring it continues to serve future generations. The renovations included replacement of the roof, electrical system overhaul including new lights and light switches, replacement of the ceiling, and painting of the classroom interior walls and doors. These improvements are not just necessary for immediate benefits but are also crucial for the long-term sustainability and success of the school ultimately fostering a better educational experience for all students.

Remarks were delivered by the Chairman of the BNECT, Mr. Albert Garcia, the Principal of the school, Mr. Keith Augustine, Ms. Melissa Andrade, General Manager of Government Schools, Ministry of Education as well as the Chairman of the Village, Mr. Victor Polanco.

At BNECT, we believe that education is the foundation of empowerment. This project is a shining example of what can be achieved when communities and partners work together to invest in Belize’s future.
