Education Sector still recovering - Reddy

Education Sector still recovering - Reddy
The Education Minister Dr. Mahendra Reddy.

The Education Minister says it will take time for things to get back to normalcy particularly in the Education Sector after Monster Cyclone Winston in February last year.

Doctor Mahendra Reddy says despite this difficulty the government is focused on ensuring that all children are educated.

While receiving donations of Educational material from Rare Birds Australia, Reddy commended the role which the International Community and the private sector played in the recovery effort in the Education sector. 

Reddy has also thanked teachers for the sacrifices they made after Cyclone Winston to ensure that students would continue to learn.

The donation is for schools in Rakiraki.

The Minister says four hundred out of the nine hundred schools were damaged by the Cyclone.

More than $120 million was allocated in 2016-2017 National Budget to rebuild schools damaged by Cyclone Winston.
