The first time Clara Purroy from Pamplona told her English teacher Maria Chegue that she would rebuild her Kenyan high school she was thirteen years old. At that time, Maria had been ordered to close her small school in Rongai, where twenty children were being educated. The facilities, the inspection had indicated, were not safe, but academically Maria assures us that "it is the best in the region".

Clara was only in 2nd ESO when she heard the story, but she assured her teacher that Our Lady would not close: "I'm going to study Architecture and I'll design the high school for you". But Maria didn't take her seriously. "Me with my dream and her with hers," she thought. However, seven years later, Clara Purroy presented her final work Degree , 'Building their future', at the School of Architecture at the University of Navarra.

"I have to start telling people to dream, because dreams come true," said Maria Chegue as students from School of Architecture erected one of the pilot classrooms they will build in Kenya this summer. On the occasion of the School's patron saint Day, and despite the rain, several students assembled the timbers to show what the modules would look like. The process has gathered more than 90 volunteers during four days and among the sponsors are Litorsa, group Industrial Munárriz and Bricodepot.

 "We wanted the children to have a space for themselves, where they could feel part of something," said Clara minutes later at classroom Magna, where she presented the project. There she said that they had studied "how the children moved throughout the day", because being a "very dynamic" high school , the structure had to adapt to their activities. When we started, we asked ourselves what was essential: a platform, because of the slope and the animals, and a roof," he said. We had to see it not only as a constructive necessity, but also as an opportunity for design".

Accompanied by her school teacher Efren Munarriz and Conrado Capilla, the young woman from Pamplona showed the plan of project, directed by Julio Clua, and explained the three construction phases: the first one of reconstruction, the second of expansion to accommodate the teaching Secondary and a last one for the Building of a boarding school. For his part, Efren stressed that this year has been "a radical change" in his life, since in the summer he will travel with some volunteers to Kenya to make a dream come true.

The Kenyan Ministry of Education gave me two years to renovate the school, but I had no money," Maria recalled emotionally. I returned to Pamplona thinking it was all over and that's when Clara came along. We also have the indispensable experience of Rayco Jiménez, our builder, who will travel to Kenya to start building the house where we will stay. He looks at the wooden beams erected on tires filled with cement and tells that Our Lady is mostly made of sheet metal.
