And for that, Principal of Samatau Primary School, Motimoti Samuelu, says he, his staff and pupils are eternally grateful for the funding provided.
“They’ve already thanked the lord for the generosity shown by the Australian High Commissioner for their project to be done.”
As an extra bonus for the children of Samatau Primary School, the toilets were completed one week ahead of schedule.
“The project was supposed to be done for four weeks but it was finished within three weeks. It started on the 22nd of June and just finished on the 11th of July.”
The money was granted through the Direct Aid Programme of the Australian Government and distributed through the Australian High Commissioner’s office in Samoa.
The program caters for organisations that need financial support throughout Samoa and around the world.
The total cost of the project was $17,085, plus $2,000 for the carpenter who built the toilet block.
Principal Motimoti said he would also like to acknowledge the ongoing support from the parents of the children at the school and reiterated his thankfulness towards the Australian High Commissioner, Sue Langford, for her assistance.
