New Generation Pre-schoolers Forced to Relocate

A few weeks ago the New Generation pre-school was given a week to clear out of their current school premises as the building had been sold and was going to be converted into a hotel. Volunteers had even spent time and money to paint the school walls and rooftop so it was with a heavy heart that the pre-schoolers had to move.

Thank God the teachers managed to find a new location for the school which is only a few minutes walking distance from the old place. However the monthly rental is a lot more expensive at RM1800 per month as compared to RM1400. We hope to raise more funds for the school through sales of the children's artwork during the upcoming Christmas Bazaars.

On the brighter side the children no longer have to walk past the drug addicts who used to gather at the dimly lit stairwell everyday. The place used to be littered with used needles and other drug paraphernalia, definitely not a conducive place for them to study. Hopefully the new school premises will be a lot safer for the pre-schoolers.
