This situation obtains on a daily basis.  After school, the students are transported back to Moleson Creek.The Moleson Creek Primary School currently sits in the middle of a virtual jungle and access to the learning institution at this time is almost impossible.Moleson Creek is one of the nearest points between Guyana and neighbouring Suriname.Apart from the jungle, access to the school was deemed treacherous, due to the state of the road, thus a decision was made to close the institution.Migration in 2012 had hit the area thus the school had to be abandoned.The school is surrounded by big bushes. Armogan is optimistic that the school can be reopened in the future, provided the road towards the proposed bridge across the Corentyne River is built.“Hopefully if the road is built to connect to the (Corentyne River) Bridge, we can probably look at reopening the school.”
