Students and staff of Kukudu Adventist College now enjoy a new swinging bridge that connects both sides of their school compound — thanks to the Western Provincial Government.
Funded under the Provincial Governance and Service Delivery Project (PGSP), the bridge provides a safer and more convenient link over the creek that separates the two halves of the school.
Apart from being a functional addition, the new bridge is also a new feature that is bringing smiles on the faces of students as they walk across it.
In a conversation with Island Sun, ADRA Project Manager, Sharon Kele said the new bridge is replacing an old bridge which served the school for years.
She adds that the bridge is more than just infrastructure development because it also symbolises progress and care for their students’ safety and wellbeing.
Kele explained that there is the stream which pose a challenge for students and staff during rainy season and also high tides.
She said during rainy seasons when water levels would rise, it was difficult to cross.
“This new bridge will make life much easier for both students and staffs to walk around the school compound,” Kele noted.
