With the new school year ready to start next week, students of Suva Grammar School will be all smiles after the upgrading of the school hall and science laboratories.
It will be good news for science students as the school’s laboratories have undergone a $50,000 upgrade with state of the art facilities.
Grammar Principal Waisake Ravatu said the New South Wales SGS Ex-Students Association has been actively fundraising in Sydney and they decided to direct the funds to renovating the Chemistry and Physics labs as earlier promised.
He is grateful that the ex-students in Fiji and abroad are helping out through the Give Back to Grammar initiative.
He added this will certainly not be the end of the upgrading works at Suva Grammar School as in 2012, the parent SGS Ex-Students Association repaired the stage and school hall which cost approximately $9,000 and was completed in time for the 2012 prize giving ceremony.
In 2011, the association repaired the toilets in the boys and girls lunch areas.
SGS Ex-Students Association Vice President Noa Seru said the projects were a major success and more projects to give back to Grammar are expected in the future.
