Gonarezhou Transfrontier Park is building a new school in Mauve, Mozambique

PRAGUE, CZECH REPUBLIC, May 27, 2011 (Press-News.org) Building of schools is one of the projects organized by the Gonarezhou Transfrontier Park in its effort to help develop the community of people living on its territory. The new elementary school will be raised in an area untouched by civilization in Mavue, Mozambique.

Construction of a new school for the children living in the area of Gonarezhou Transfrontier Park in Mozambique, Africa has begun in April 2011. The realization of the development in Mavue is provided by a team of specialists and workers from Europe. A number of local residents are also actively involved in the construction. Thanks to these workers we were able to set the foundations and now the bearing walls of the school buildings are being built.

Mavue Elementary School building complex
The elementary school in Mavue was designed as a complex of three separate buildings, where the ground plan of the complex is in the shape of the letter U. Two other small adjacent buildings will serve as school technical premises.

Two of the three main buildings will be intended for the children's educational needs; their largest part is formed by spacious classes and will also have ample office area for teachers. Third - connecting building will serve as a gym and a social area with a broader range of use. The buildings will be built in a simple fashion with materials readily available in the given location and in a way that it does not interfere with the natural appearance of the local landscape and its natural balance. The courtyard, which will be formed between the classes, will have greenery planted on it and children can take advantage of this area in their breaks between classes.
