The implementation of a new classroom for Mao’a School in West Kwaio, Malaita Province is steadily progressing, reaching the halfway point.
The new classroom contains three rooms and was funded through the Provincial Capacity Development Fund (PCDF) with the aim to provide enough space for students of Mao’a School and surrounding communities in West Kwaio and Malaita Province as a whole.
In an interview with Island Sun Auki, a Mao’a School teacher, Mitchyl Pitha, said the new classroom will provide a conducive environment for the young rural people of the school.
He stated that, like other schools with similar projects under the funding, it will provide the same benefits as they do.
“Yes, the project will support us, especially our young leaders. It will support our young people here by providing a conducive environment.
“Like other people who also receive this kind of project, we will have the same benefits from this project,” he said.
According to a recent media report, Mao’a Community High School also benefited from this PCDF for a library.
It stated that the Malaita Provincial Government has been approved to implement 35 percent of its revised 2024/2025 budget for the 2025 financial year.
The 35 percent of the revised 2024/2025 budget is worth $11,873,158, and all this funding comes from the Provincial Capacity Development Fund’s (PCDF’s) Capital Development Fund budget.
Malaita Province is now qualified again to access this budgetary support from the PCDF Capital Development Fund budget.
The budget support aims to enable MPG to improve the livelihood of communities across the province through the implementation of social and economic projects.
