“The scope of project includes the construction of a new building of 12 classrooms as well as other facilities and a replacement block of teacher’s quarters (eight units) in the school.
“The construction of these 12 classrooms will provide more comfort to Form Six students and teachers of SMK Nabawan, where before they occupied the temporary building at SK Pekan Nabawan due to the lack of classrooms,” he said when officiating the Convocation Ceremony of the Form Six of SMK Nabawan Session 2021 /2022 at the school.
Arthur, who is also Pensiangan Member of Parliament, said that projects based on the needs of the people reflect the concern of the Unity Government in ensuring that students in rural areas do not miss out in having infrastructure and a comfortable educational environment to enable them to achieve optimal self-development.
He said learning environment plays an important role in guaranteeing the effectiveness of teaching and learning, allowing students to focus more on learning.
