Head teacher and pupils in one of two primary schools in Leqceiba, southern Mauritania:
finances were provided by us to pay for the construction of the desks.
Schools Project
With pupil numbers reaching 850 across the two primary schools in the small
rural town of Leqceiba in the Gorgol region of southern Mauritania, resources are
so inadequate that there are only a handful of exercise books and curriculum
manuals available. This project has seen the renovation of one room in one of
the schools to be used as a library and the rehabilitation of all the classroom
floors and blackboards in the other. Fifty-five hundred exercise books and manuals are also
being provided across the two schools, as well as 32 desks.
