Hail storm disturbs the progress


Pictures speak for themselves.

Early rains brought wonderment to Idigima students. Most have never seen ice before, and none have seen snow. When pea-sized hail, high winds and rain hit Idigima, piling up and covering the ground, the students obtained a reference point for our English lessons involving winter weather, snow, ice, and freezing cold. The next day there were still piles of ice in shaded areas, and students were gathering it up to hold and examine.


As interesting as it was, it was very disappointing to see the freshly laid wall of our new classroom cave in as a result of the driving force.


The unique direction of the storm's wind and rain also saturated the gable end of Form II's classroom, causing an evacuation. The gable and wall was replaced with a higher ratio of cement mix, and construction has continued.

In His service,

Gary & Joanne
