NEW DESKS AND CHAIRS FOR NORTHERN SCHOOLS
14/02/2021
More than 200 desks, chairs and other school furniture pieces donated to the Ministry of Education on Friday will be distributed to 16 schools affected by Tropical Cyclone Ana in the Northern Division.
The furniture pieces were donated by the charitable arm of Punjas & Sons Pte Ltd – the Punjas Charitable Trust – to the Minister for Education, Heritage and Arts, Hon. Rosy Akbar. This was shipped across to Fiji with the assistance of Swire Shipping Limited.
Hon. Akbar said the donation was timely, noting that one of the needs in cyclone-stricken schools in the North were furniture pieces.
