At the moment the walls of phase 1 are approx 2 meters high and made of concrete blocks. This part of the building contains 4 guest rooms, a store, an office, a kitchen and a toilet which will empty into a septic tank. The foundations for phase 2 have been dug and this phase will contain 3 tutor rooms. Phase 3, yet to be started will also contain 3 tutor rooms. Work is carried out as funds are provded from Olney. The building is done by a skilled contractor while the clearing and preparing is done by local unemployed youths who will eventually be the beneficiaries of the centre.
