Delivery of School to the Ministry of Education

2018.04.19

Recently, we finished restoration and extension work of Al Mzayer Comprehensive Girls School in Amman Prefecture, and delivered to the Ministry of Education of Jordan. Today this school has approximately 370 female students, of which 5% are Syrians. This time, we provided extension work for 6 class rooms, 5 toilets, and repair of wash basin and existing classrooms.

In Jordan, shortage of classrooms is becoming a problem due to inflow of many Syrian refugees. After our restoration and extension work, the number of children who can go to school will increase.

Also, we repaired toilet and wash basin, and organized environment where children can practice what they learnt from sanitary session. In the session, we focused on promoting hand washing to maintain clean environment, therefore the maintenance of wash basin was essential.

JEN’s engineers will visit the school even after delivery, and will check if there are any defects when students use the facilities.

We changed all taps, replaced the tiles to those that do not easily turn dirty. Clogging of piping due to garbage was solved too.
