Education has the power to make the world a better place.

This was the sentiments of Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama while to officiating the opening of the new teachers quarters, library and a classroom at Ratu Luke Primary School, Wainunu in Bua.

Bainimarama says this are part of ongoing efforts and initiatives in the government's goal of education for all.

He says with improved education, there are so many positive impacts such as increased income, healthier people and a boost in  economic growth.

Bainimarama says the newly opened library will give the students a chance to read about what is happening and give them a brighter view of everything.

He says the kindergarten will help children establish their school career and the quarters will give teachers a better working and living environment.

Bainimarama says if we encourage students to be proactive with school, they will become prosperous in the future.
