The construction of a Grade 9 classroom at Bendera Primary School in Kenyenya Sub-county, which former Kisii KUPPET Executive Secretary Ben Nyaundi said started early last month, is almost complete.
He attributed the positive progress to the collective responsibility between the school management and the community.
He was speaking to residents on Thursday when he inspected the progress of the project.
“Any community development calls for collective effort by stakeholders. I thank our people for this joint effort,” he said.
Nyaundi, in his right as an old pupil of the school, appealed to colleagues who are working in and outside the country to visit and encourage the young learners to embrace education.

“I call upon the leaders of that group to revive it because it opened great discoveries of education development for our children,” he said.
Observing that the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC) is a demanding venture in both material provision and content delivery, the educator asked the government to employ more teachers to have a smooth running.
He promised to mobilize his educated friends from the region to complement parents and teachers’ efforts as a way of giving back to society.
