Murehwa Rural District Council has completed constructing a primary school in Ward 19, thereby bringing relief to learners who have been walking long distances to access the nearest primary school.
Mushawatu Primary School was commissioned yesterday by the Minister of State for Mashonaland East Provincial Affairs and Devolution, Dr Appolonia Munzverengwi.
The event was attended by senior Government officials from the province and Ward 19 residents, among others.
Devolution funds as well as Constituency Development Fund financed construction of the school.
“I am happy to be officially commissioning this school for the benefit of learners around here,” said Minister Munzverengwi.
“If more schools are constructed, then we are fulfilling President Mnangagwa’s vision that no learner should walk long distances to school,” she said.
Several parents who attended the event thanked the Second Republic for working towards bringing critical services closer to the people.
