The 20-acre campus includes the first accessible primary school for the local children. The innovative design, by architect Leslie Jill Hanson, is based on the traditional Sukuma village layout of clustered homes. A proud community workforce has assembled to create the school. The laborers are learning marketable skills, many of them earning their first-ever paychecks. Building materials such as locally available sand, soil, stone and wood have been chosen to ensure sustainability. Cisterns and wells are designed to take advantage of the rainy season, while composting latrines are built with sensitivity to hygiene and protection of the environment. The thoughtful landscaping provides private gardens for teachers, a teaching garden for students, a kitchen garden to help supply food for lunches and shade trees for shelter from the hot sun. In keeping with Sukuma tradition, a euphorbia hedge surrounds the campus to delineate the school boundaries.
