Media mogul Oprah Winfrey has opened a second school for poor South Africans.Oprah and magazine boss' Angel Network charity funded the Seven Fountains Primary School in the remote KwaZuluNatal province and Winfrey jetted to South Africa to attend the opening ceremony this morning.
The new school is an environmentally friendly institution. It's water supply will come from recycled rainwater and the institute's energy will be provided by solar power.
During a dedication speech, Oprah said, "The Seven Fountains School is an example of what schools in South Africa can become." Winfrey first visited the site of the new school when it was little more than a farm. She handed out clothing, books and teacher-training materials for the new institute's 1,000 students and staff.
The school cost a whopping $1.6 million dollars to make and features 25 classrooms, a library and a landscaped playground. Kudos to Oprah!
