Families and students that reside in and nearby Magodro in Ba now do not have to travel far to get educated following the opening of the Magodro Secondary School.

While opening the school, Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama says expanding access and improving the quality of children’s education is one of the government’s most significant accomplishments.

Bainimarama says the establishment of the school is part of a large vision the government is setting for the country - a new Fiji.

He says the vision the government has is to have a Fiji where location does not determine the opportunity Fijians can access or the success they can find.

Bainimarama also thanked the parents present at the event for the commitment and sacrifices they have done for their children’s academic success as the education the children need are at their doorstep.

Meanwhile, Bainimarama also thanked the residents of Bukuya, Nadevo, Navaga, Tabalei, Tabuquto, Nasivikoso and Bila as they contributed to the construction of the new school.

He added that government also invested a total of $95,000 for the construction of a new classroom and a house to accommodate the teachers.
