Gore Family Foundation basic schools get a boost

Several basic schools in the Corporate Area which are supported by the Phillip and Christine Gore Family Foundation received much-needed capital improvements during the last school term.

Chetolah Park Infant School received new kitchen cupboards as a result of the foundation's collaboration with Eurotrend Manufacturing Limited, who again answered the call of the needy and provided beautiful cupboards for the school's kitchen. This is the third donation of its kind that Eurotrend has made.

Mission House Methodist Basic School received 600 ceramic tiles with attendant grout and thinset. "We are truly grateful and happy for the assistance you have given to our school thus far. As we continue to strive for excellence, we are delighted that you are a part of our journey to improve our learning environment," said principal Kyc-Ann Scott.

Internal classroom reorganisation has taken place at Sandhurst Early Childhood Development Centre and Chetolah Park Infant. New storage units, whiteboards and book stands ensure that small spaces are utilised efficiently and in a child-friendly way.

St John's Basic School received a 400-gallon water tank with a pressure pump as well as a commitment from the National Water Commission for regular water delivery. Two of Gore Homes plumbing and electrical contractors also provided the installation services for fans and lighting in the kitchen.

These carefully planned and professionally executed improvements will positively impact the learning environment of several hundred children.
