NEW SCHOOL BUILDING
Follow the steps in the construction of the Choice new school here.
 1July 2018. Work starts on our new school. |  2July 2018. Work starts on our new school. |  3August 2018 The reinforced beams locking the foundation together, are now being poured. |  4August 2018 Its customary in Cambodia to provide a small blessing gift, we have done this many times now for each building. This time we spent a little more, US$12.50 as the building is bigger. |
|---|---|---|---|
 5November 2018 The new School building is progressing well. The metal framework for the roof is complete and the verander frame is primed (light green) ready for the topcoat. |  6Early December 2018 Front classroom wall looking good, window and door lintels will take time. |  8January 2019 Electrical wiring now being done. The feature brick wall is a new experience for our builders, and with the rainbow colors they love it as well. They are a great mob of guys so willing to do whatever is needed. It hasn’t been easy as the builders are not used to cleaning bricks as they go or wiping excess cement off the doors and window frames. It will be a while to get the windows and doors bedded in but I am anxious to do the lacquer and touch up painting myself. |  7Mid December 2018 The feature brickwork on the front of the classrooms is finished, only needs a coat of lacquer later. We are starting to install the rainbow colored doors and windows. |
 9February 2019 Our 3000L septic tank for the new school toilets arrived today, we installed one a year ago for the kindergarten, works well no problems. |  10February 2019 A sealed unit with bacteria digesting the waste. There will be a secondary 3 ring tank for seepage. |  11February 2019 As far as I know this is the best clean solution available in Cambodia. |  12February 2019. The new school toilets are nearly finished. |
 14March 2019 A huge effort from the work group in completing the bike shelter and spreading tons of sand. |  15March 2019 We only need to place gravel on the floor of the shelter, this will be done in conjuction with our internal road repair. |  13March 2019 Many thanks to members of the Rotary Clubs from Euroa, Benalla and Kilmore. |  18May 2019 What a difference, fantastic, I believe they do an extra special job for us being friends through Longlin House, many thanks Lee. |
 17May 2019 We had Lee’s family back again to lay about 250sq.m. more turf in front of the new classrooms. |  16March 2019 Many thanks to Aaron Dryden for funding the bike shelter. |  21June 2019 After a long hard weekend by all the staff transferring everything across from the old school, the new school opens. |  20June 2019 Even though not everything is completed on the site, the main school building is sufficiently ready for classes to commence. |
 19June 2019 The new school OPENS! |  22June 2019 The official school opening will happen later in the year. The kids and teachers are really happy with their new home of learning! |
