Heavy hailstorm blew off roofing of a classroom block
After a long season of drought, a heavy hailstorm hit, that blew off roofing of a classroom block at Kamusenene Children Center. The already weakened and burn out block due to termites eating up timber was left at the verge of collapsing to the extent that it cannot be reroofed but demolished. This block housed the candidate class, Primary Six and offices. Heavy rains started at 4:30pm while students where in their classes. At around 5:00pm, this fate occurred but thanks be to God that neither students nor teachers were harmed. However, all text books (teaching materials), students’ books and office equipment were destroyed.
The remaining blocks are also temporary structures constructed with timber, mud and bamboo due to limited funds to construct permanent buildings. In addition, these were further weakened and at the verge of collapsing hence a threat to the school community. They don’t have windows that interfere with pupils’ lessons during the rainy seasons as wind blows into the class rooms, destroying pupils’ property.
Currently, candidates and primary six students don’t have classrooms and there are no offices, yet it is still a rainy season. Please, stand with us in prayer for God’s provision of construction of brick permanent structures and restoration of materials that were destroyed.
