Tables & benches

Dakar Women's Group paid for 74 new tables and benches for the children. They were ordered in March and delivered in two loads: early May and mid-May. Everyone at the school is really happy, there's only one little problem: the new tables are larger than the old ones, so each class will have a few students less next year because they could'nt fit as many tables into the classrooms as with the old tables. For the last weeks until summer, there are kids that sit 5 to a bench instead of 4. But the comfort for them is roughly the same as before.

Only the tables and benches for the main building have been changed, the classrooms in the annex are too small to fit larger tables.
