In the Viriela community of Pebane District, Zambezia Province, Mozambique, a new school building with orange-and-blue walls and a striking green roof has officially been put into service. With five classrooms, one administrative office and 100 sets of desks and chairs all in place, the new facility can accommodate up to 300 students, offering children in the community a spacious and bright learning environment.

The project was funded and constructed by Shuang Long, Lda., a subsidiary of Hainan Zirconium Titanium Resources Holding Group Co., Ltd., a Chinese mining enterprise. The school was officially inaugurated in early August 2026. Cássimo Manuel Jamal, Administrator of Pebane District, district education officials and representatives of Shuang Long, Lda. attended the inauguration ceremony.

Laying Every Brick to Build New Spaces for Learning

Inside the new campus, large windows let in plenty of natural light, the floors are smooth, and blackboards, desks and chairs are neatly in place. The spacious and well-lit classrooms provide children with improved learning conditions for reading, writing and learning every day.

The 100 sets of desks and chairs were delivered together with the school building, and all five classrooms and the administrative office are fully ready for use. Children now have a stable place to study close to home, and the conditions for local schooling have been substantially improved.

Bringing Classrooms Closer to the Community, Opening More Possibilities for Growth

The inauguration ceremony also highlighted the efforts to prevent early marriage early marriage and support for girls’ education. Education lets children see a wider world and provides important support for girls to enter the classroom, stay in school and broaden their paths to growth. Built in the community, the school brings the classroom closer to children, giving more children access to nearby basic education.

One bright classroom after another and rows of neatly arranged desks and chairs bear witness to children’s daily reading and writing, and carry families’ hopes for the next generation. Every improvement in schooling conditions makes children’s path to learning more solid, while every lesson learned in the classroom helps build a stronger future for the community.

Responding to Expectations with Responsibility, Guarding Growth Through Action

The Viriela Community Primary School is one of the projects implemented under the Memorandum of Social Responsibility between Shuang Long, Lda. and the Pebane District Government. From a written commitment to a completed school building, and from construction work to supporting facilities, the company’s commitment to social responsibility has taken concrete form in a school that can serve the community for years to come.

Forenterprises rooted in the local community, development goes hand in hand with responsibility, and business operations are closely connected to community wellbeing. Based on the practical needs of local residents, Shuang Long, Lda. built the school building and fitted out its facilities, turning corporate responsibility into public services that are visible, practical and lasting. The completed campus, installed facilities and delivered teaching spaces demonstrate the company’s pragmatic commitment to putting down roots locally and giving back to the community.

Today, the Viriela Community Primary School is already in service. The brand-new school building, bright classrooms and neatly arranged desks and chairs together reflect a simple yet important hope: that children can learn in a better environment and have a stronger start in life.
