Boundary fencing needed to improve the sanitation of a secondary school Ref: 239.00 Where is this project needed? Chitwan, Nepal Who needs help with this? Paras Secondary School, Parasnagar How will my support help? There are almost 1000 students studying in this government school in Nepal. There have been significant improvements to the facilities and the students are beginning to enjoy an improved learning environment. However, the school is currently on an open piece of land and is regularly disturbed by outsiders as well as cattle during school time, which is making the environment dirty and unsanitary. The other problem faced by the teachers is that it is difficult to keep the children within the school grounds at playtime. The local community have agreed that this is a vital project but they are a poor community and they are unable to raise the funds needed. They are able to contribute the labour required but they need outside support with the cost of the materials. Your support with this project to erect a fence around the school will significantly improve the schooling environment for all of the students. Cost Breakdown All items are bought in Nepal; to reduce costs and to support the local economy. All costs are therefore given in Nepalese Rupees. JustAid is currently using an exchange rate of £1 = 120 Nepalese Rupees. This rate is slightly lower than the Banks because it allows for fluctuation in the rates Materials: Pillars: 54 x 200 NRS = 10,800 NRS Support Pillars: 20 x 150 NRS = 3000 NRS Mesh: 246ft. x 100 NRS = 26,400 NRS Wire: 5 kg x 60 NRS = 300 NRS Nails and miscellany expenses = 600 NRS Project Implementation costs = 3100 NRS Local bank charges to receive funds = 350 NRS Local contribution: Skilled and unskilled labour and transportation = 10,000 NRS Total Cost of Project = 44550 Nepalese Rupees "Education is a fundamental human right.
