2019/2/7

On 7th February 2019, a handover ceremony of a new school block which was funded by the Government of Japan through its Grant Assistance for Grassroots Human Security Projects (GGP) was held at Groot Aub Primary School in Windhoek Rural Constituency, Khomas Region. H.E. Mr. Hideaki Harada, Ambassador of Japan, representing the Government of Japan, handed over the facility to Hon. Ms Katrina Hanse-Himarwa, Minister of Education, Arts and Culture who represented the Government of the Republic of Namibia.

The grant amounting to NAD 756,090.72 was utilised to build four classrooms and a storeroom. Upon handing over the facility, the platoon system (the double session system) in Groot Aub Primary School was abolished and all the learners attend morning sessions when they have more physical strength and greater concentration. Japan’s assistance enabled the school to provide a conducive educational environment for learners.
