This past Monday Ndanu, Tumaini and apprentice Regnaldi completed a double size stove for Mawanda secondary school. A double stove is two normal size stoves next to each other. It accommodates four large pots and teachers’ small pots. Tämän viikon maanantaina Ndanu, Tumaini ja ’oppipoika’ Regnaldi saivat valmiksi kaksoishellan Mawandan yläkoululle. Kaksoishella tarkoittaa kahta normaalikokoista

Ric had an opportunity to visit Rombo on Saturday (28th July). A photo gallery of his visit is here. Ricillä oli mahdollisuus vierailla Rombon kouluissa lauantaina (28.7). Kuva galleria visiitistä on täällä.  Ndanu waited at the Kawawa junction with the newly made handwashing kits. Here the car was loaded, stands on the roof and barrels inside.

Maanantaina valmistui hella Kitongorian alakoululle. Ndanu otti kaksi paikallista rakentajaa, Sisti Tarimon ja Ambrosi Shiriman Rombosta oppimaan hellanrakennusta kanssaan. / On Monday a stove was completed at Kitongori primary.

(suomeksi kuvien alla) Mawanda Mkei primary and Liana built a water tank and a stove in autumn 2017. It was clearly explained from our side that to receive such a large subsidy to build a water tank, a school needs to be committed to do all the other improvements and environmental activities as well: To

At the end of last week a stove was completed at Kirachi primary. The school has a nice stone building for a kitchen – unlike many other schools at which we have built stoves so far. But their cooking facilities were just the same, the standard three-stone fire on the earthen floor and outside in

Reissaavilta rakentajilta puuttuvat kaikki elämän mukavuudet, mutta aurinkonnousun kajo Kilimanjaron rinteellä ja aamutaivaan täysikuu on ainutlaatuinen. Mawenzi etualalla, Kibon jäätikköhuippu taustalla. Travelling builders may lack all the comforts of life, but the gleam of sunrise on the slopes of Kilimanjaro and the full moon in the early morning sky are unique. Mawenzi in the front

Muungan alakoulu sai viimeviikolla uuden hellan. ’Uusi’ on tietenkin vähän harhaan johtava, koska eihän siellä koskaan mitään entistäkään hellaa ollut, vain kolme kiveä.
