Pelikaan School Pictures

Wilma, the principal of the Pelikaan school, graciously gave us a tour of their new school building the other day. It is both beautiful and functional. There is lots of room for their 185 students. Bright colors create a fun atmosphere. The classrooms are a lot bigger on the inside than they might appear from the outside.

A new section was added to the building between the original back wall and the basketball court. It contains bathrooms, offices, storage space and a couple classrooms.

Here is the main auditorium looking from the front to the back. You can see the hallways that extend beyond the original back wall of the building.

Here is the view from the back to the front. There is a conference room with kitchen facilities where the stage used to be. The front corner rooms, both upstairs and downstairs are useful storage areas.

The Pelikaan School is on the cover of the current edition of The Bonaire Reporter newspaper. You can read all about the school online.
