Ready for 2020-21 school year
The new multifunctional space is ready for la rentreé . Difficulties with procurement attendant on exchange rate fluctuations leave final finish, painting and wiring, to come. Yet it has already proved its worth: to allow distancing, the dedication ceremony was held within rather than in the sanctuary of the church across the road.
Done 2020, planning 2021
Word from Pr. Diegue is that the coming week will see the completion of the 2019-20 school year. Remember there was some loss of time due to political turmoil. There will be a two week break before the return to school for the 2020-21 academic year.

School’s back
The vexing issue of in class or online does not apply; there is no internet in rural Haiti. The classrooms completed from 2016 to 2019 have excellent cross ventilation, and are spacious enough to allow some distancing. Masks required. They do it right at St Matthew’s!
Cercle matinale
“Chaque matin nous faisons un activité sur la cour de l’ecole qui s’appel cercle matinale. C’est tres intéressant pour éveiller les enfants avant de commencer à travailler. Ça se fait à 7h 40 pour 8h00” – Clibert Massillon
