Every Fijian student deserves an equally high standard of learning, no matter where they live.

This was highlighted by the Prime Minister while opening the new classroom block at Navakasiga District School in Bua.

He says government is not satisfied simply with being the first to provide free, compulsory education for every child but every Fijian student must have access to an equally high standard of learning.

Bainimarama says Navakasiga Primary School is now equipped with a modern education facility that is built to cyclone-resistant standards and will also be used as an evacuation and shelter point for the surrounding communities.
