School sees increase in enrolments

BOREBOA Primary School in the nation’s capital has seen an increase in enrolments this year after a mass withdrawals last year during the lockdown and the Covid-19 pandemic.
Deputy head teacher Theckla Racehei said they would give priority to those students whose parents wrote letters to the school and informed the school.
She said parents were instructed to inform the school that they would withdraw their children because of the Covid-19.
Racehei said the school was looking to take back all returning students who would be required to pay K113 as their parental component for school fees.
She said the school would not charge any project fees this year.
“We don’t have a project yet, once we have project, we will charge,” she said.
“We have to have a project first, right now, there are many things we want to do.
“This is a growing school.
“We have to come up with a new infrastructure because we are going to take grade nine next year, that’s our area now we have to look around.”
Racehei said it would be better if the Government and the Education Department had a separate budget for infrastructure alone.
