A new Nursery was built in 2004 at
Boraba Lower Basic School

 

 
It is built like the other classrooms with open walls instead of windows. Why is this a good idea?
 
It has been painted white with lots of colourful pictures and the alphabet.
 
These paintings will last well in the heat. Paper is expensive and gets very brittle in the high temperatures
 

 
Teachers from England took some puppets for the Nursery. These children had never seen one before. Some were scared of it at first.
 
After a while they were brave enough to touch it.
 
The Nursery teacher is learning a song she can share with the children - and the parrot puppet!

Nursery children do not have to wear a uniform but children from a school in the UK decorated white T shirts for them to wear.
In 2007 money was taken instead to have uniforms made in Janjnabureh.
Why do you think this might be a better idea?
This meant that many more children were able to go to nursery than before.
This was because parents have to pay 10 dalasi (about 20 pence) a month to pay for the Nursery teacher.

Many cannot afford this and to pay for clothes too
