End of September we have received the 317 students who will follow this new school year at the LAP.
Taking into account the addition of income generating activities, we needed to reorganise the management at the LAP.
The principal was promoted to president of the association for the LAP and has now two hats: the supervison of the school and the developpement / control of the Income Generating activities.
On the school side, the headmaster was promoted to principal and one teacher was promoted to headmaster. We have also recruited our first female teacher for sciences.
The field harvests (corn, lentils, beans, sorghum, soja) were reasonable this year. The rains came late and were not very regular.
We have started the fish farming with 4.500 tilapia in one fish tank. In december we will put 4.500 cat fish in a second tank already built.
The next activity which will be started in December will be the production of vegetables (tomates, cumcumber, peppers) in greenhouse.
It is still a very hard battle to find the funding for the running costs of the LAP and it will take some time before we can benefit from the income generating activities.
Thank you for your support and help us spread the word about this fantastic project for the development of young people of Burkina Faso.
