WILLEMSTAD - Education Minister Sithree Van Heydoorn needs 6.7 million guilders for the maintenance of three schools. These are Kolegio Erasmo, Cola Debrot School and the Nelly Winkel School. All three schools have deferred maintenance.
The Netherlands donates 60 million for the refurbishment of schools. A total of twelve educational institutions will be renovated this school year. Van Heydoorn has asked State Secretary Van Huffelen of Kingdom Relations to deposit the first part of the amount in advance, so that the project can start.
