The nursery school reinterprets the traditional Jola Compluvium vernacular to create a community-centered learning environment organized around a central play courtyard. Built with locally sourced materials such as adobe, earth bags, and thatch, the school encourages students and the community to participate in its construction, decoration, and ongoing maintenance, fostering creativity and a shared sense of ownership.
