Marita lies at about 2600m above sea level and has a spectacular view over the surrounding valleys. On clear days, one can even see Mount Cameroon!
A set of primary school classrooms was construction with the help of ICA and completed in 2015. Around the same time, the nursery classrooms that the community had collapsed. Inspired by the success of the primary classroom projects, the community took advantage of the energy present and cleared the land and gathered the materials for a new nursery school. They applied for help from CIC again, and were granted the project.
The nursery school classroom was completed in 2017.
Marita town lies at the very top of a hill with a magnificant view. The local school board members show ICA the completed classroom (2017). New nursery classrooms are being constructed (2017) The nursery school children are looking forward to the new classrooms Marita has a breathtaking panorama ICA is visiting the construction site in spring 2017
