President Edouard Fritch and several government officials, including Education, Youth and Sports Minister Christelle Lehartel, officially opened the Van Bastolaer student lodgings on Wednesday afternoon in Papeete.

The ceremony was attended by Senator Lana Tetuanui, Member of Parliament Nicole Sanquer, Chief of Administrative Divisions of Windward and Leeward Islands, Raymond Yeddou, and Mayor of Papeete Michel Buillard.

This building, which has been renovated by TNAD (Tahiti Nui Development and Development), will accommodate young Polynesians who pursue higher education elsewhere than the University. More than 3000 m2 have been renovated and arranged to accommodate students in 50 T1 and 14 T2 for a minimum capacity of 78 beds.

"It is especially a place of accommodation wanted by my government to find, finally, a solution to our young students, originating from the islands or the peninsula, educated in a formation of superior technician (BTS) or in a class preparatory work for the urban area, "said the President.

"By building Faa'a's boarding school at the moment, it will host more than 200 students (including about 40 middle school students) by expanding the Mahina boarding school and rehabilitating boarding schools. We are actively contributing to the fight against school drop-out for island students and ultimately to their academic success and their integration into Polynesian society, "added the President.

The building inaugurated on Wednesday afternoon will complement the existing university student housing offer, CHE, a student accommodation center, and housing on the Punaauia university campus, which has a capacity of 300 beds. The total cost of the works and services was more than 500 million Fcfp TTC.

The main difficulty of this operation was to adapt to the technical constraints inherent to the existing building. It is also the first rehabilitation operation of this magnitude conducted in French Polynesia. The project was completed with the help of 13 local companies, about ten of which are SMEs with less than 25 employees.

 

With the completion of the rehabilitation project of the Van Bastolaer building, all the economic actors, the municipality of Papeete or the riparian traders implemented the rehabilitation of a building but also that of a whole neighborhood. . The successful example of the rehabilitation of the Van Bastolaer building also demonstrates to the owners or economic actors that the solution of rehabilitation even heavy, can be a real alternative to the deconstruction and reconstruction, which are often too expensive solutions and therefore dissuasive for project promoters.
