Great news for the students and staff of Koroqaqa Primary School in Tailevu as BSP Financial Group Limited has delivered infrastructure upgrades aimed at improving the learning environment and enhancing access to hygienic facilities for the students.

The project, spearheaded by BSP’s Thomson Street and Samabula Branches, includes the construction of three new toilet blocks, one of which features a shower facility to benefit students participating in after-school sports programs.

In addition, general maintenance and upgrades were carried out on the kindergarten complex, including the installation of new cabinets, sinks and a renovated indoor toilet block to better cater to the school’s youngest learners.

BSP says a water tank was also installed with three hand-basins to ensure reliable access to clean water.

BSP General Manager Retail, Ravindra Singh, emphasized BSP’s commitment to supporting education and community welfare through its Community Project program.

He says today’s handover is a testament to BSP’s unwavering dedication to enhancing educational infrastructure and fostering positive change in the communities they serve.

Singh says Koroqaqa Primary School plays a vital role in shaping the future of children across Baulevu, Koroqaqa, Udalia, Wainisasa, and neighbouring areas.

He says despite the school’s remote location, they are proud to invest in projects that provide students with safe, hygienic and supportive learning environments.

He adds this effort would not have been possible without the tireless contributions of their staff, who volunteered their time and skills to make a difference.

Koroqaqa Primary School, which caters for 236 primary students and 20 kindergarteners, is an integral part of the local community.

Koroqaqa Primary School Head Teacher, Arvind Prasad, expressed his gratitude for BSP’s support, saying the improvements brought about by BSP’s Community Project have made a tremendous difference for our students and teachers.

He says the new facilities, especially the shower-equipped toilet block and the upgraded kindergarten classroom, will greatly enhance the students’ daily experience at school.
