Roofing Project at Kabambe Primary School
Report from Fr Alfred: The project has been run smoothly without hardships. We are happy now that the project is over. Below are stages of the project from the start up to the end (roofing stage).
The maintenance of above two thatched grass classrooms of Kabambe Primary has costed us MWK846, 500.00. See the break-down of the stated cost below:
| NO. | MATERIALS / ITEMS | Amount: MWK |
| 1 | 54 Iron Sheets of 12ft in size @ MWK5, 650.00 each | MWK 305, 100 |
| 2. | 11 Bags of Cement @ MWK7, 500.00 each | MWK 82, 500 |
| 3. | 25 Timbers of 2 by 6 @ MWK7, 900.00 each | MWK 197, 500 |
| 4. | 25 Timbers of 2 by 3 @ MWK4, 800.00 each | MWK 120, 000 |
| 5. | 8 Kgs Nails (5 Inches) @ MWK1, 800.00 p/kg | MWK 14, 400 |
| 6. | 7 Kgs Nails (3 Inches) @ MWK 1,500.00 p/kg | MWK 10, 500 |
| 7. | Wire & Solijinum | MWK 56, 500 |
| 8 | Transport – purchasing Building materials | MWK 60, 000 |
| Total | MWK 846, 500 |
NB: By looking at above break-down, you realise that there is a slight change on the figures of iron sheets, bags of cement and on the kilograms of nails as compared to the first quotation. We had to buy four additional iron-sheets and their price now higher than the time we presented to you the quotation. We also added some kilograms of nails, which had consequently affected the entire budget. The bags of cement which were bought had been used for the foundation so that the building itself could have a strong foundation.
Finally, we thank all M-T members for the usual support you offer us. God bless you.
Yours in Christ & Mary,
