PSFA is pleased to be partnering with the African Book Box Society (ABB) from Victoria for the design and construction of this desperately needed facility in the tea farming region of Mufindi, south of Iringa in southern Tanzania.

Tidivi Primary School - Kilimamoja - Huduma Ward

Construction is complete on both buildings. This project is sponsored by the Royal Military College of Canada (RMC) Class of '70 alumni. Teachers are excited and ready to start classes next term. The official opening celebrations in two weeks will be attended by local officials and a large number of villagers.

If you remember from our January 2016 blog post, we cancelled the official opening of our Classroom 5 and 6 at the Kilimamoja (Ayatsere) Primary School due to heavy rains that muddied the roads making them impassable. Well, since then, in the last five months, we initiated construction of the 7th and final classroom, and it is now complete. And we also initiated another badly needed teacher residence to get the two teacher families temporarily living in classrooms 5 and 6 out and into proper homes on site.

Work begins on the Simba Milima Primary School

02/09/2016

Simba Milima Primary School is our latest school project and is sponsored by The Safari Partners in Vancouver BC, Canada.

The name "Simba Milima" is a result of an idea to name it after a Canadian animal. We submitted a list of animals and the village unanimously chose the swahili translation for cougar or mountain lion: simba = lion, milima = mountain!

Work on the Tidivi Primary School

Tidivi Primary School Update:

As much as their resources allowed, the village on their part constructed a two-classroom building and an 8-seat latrine type toilet building. We will complete the remaining roofing, wall plastering, interior finishes and painting. The four classrooms finished by end of March is a good start for the school. Teachers and pupils have been assigned and classes will begin next term. Now, we have to focus fundraising efforts for the next building priorities; teacher residences now, and administration building, electricity, administration building and kitchen/dining hall in future successive years.
