After visiting the floating village on our August 2025 mission, we witnessed the harsh conditions in which the children had to traverse to attend “school” at the back of an old mechanic garage amongst the smell and noise. Children were packed into a cramped space with no windows and no light.

The children were hopeful and eager to learn, despite the lack of a proper structure. The idea of a Boat House was created to specifically provide a separate learning environment for the children. AHHA fundraised and donated $21,500AUD for this boat house school project. This was completed in November 2025 including the floating boat structure, solar lights and toilets, tables and chairs, books, and white board. This is able to house up to 100 children, allowing more students to be able to attend school than previous.
