The Sunwig Foundation in Canada will be funding and constructing a new state-of- the-art-school in Jamaica in collaboration with Helping Hands Jamaica Foundation and Food for the Poor Canada.
The school, which will be located in Trelawny, near Royalton White Sands, one of the Sunwing Travel Group’s exclusive Jamaican resorts, will bring a much-needed, upgraded facility to the parish, and will be an integral part of the community.
The school is expected to be ready for the start of the new 2015/2016 academic year.
It will accommodate 75 children and three-member teaching staff in a modern, healthy and well-appointed building.
The new school will be secure, and furnished with all necessary educational modules including desks, teaching materials, books, computer and printer, toys and playground equipment.
Additionally, the school will include a separate area where children who are unwell can be cared for, proper water sanitation equipment and kitchen facilities in which hot meals can be prepared for the students.
“Through our operations we have developed great affection for the people of Jamaica, and it is very exciting to be able to assist the parish of Trelawny in such a meaningful way,” Stephen Hunter, President, Sunwing Travel Group said about the project.
