Minister of Education Priya Manickchand yesterday commissioned a $28.7m primary school at Swan Village, Linden-Soesdyke Highway.
The school was officially opened on September 5, 2022 and has 109 pupils and six teachers.
The Swan Primary School comprises class rooms for grades 1-5. A class for Grade 6 is underway along with living quarters for teachers. In delivering remarks, Manickchand said that residents of Swan had a talk with her two years ago and explained the dire need for a primary school. Previously, pupils had to travel to Yarrowkabra for school on a daily basis which was time consuming and costly.
