Stephen Whitmee High School Explained

Stephen Whitmee High School is a senior high school in Morikao, Abaiang Island, Kiribati.[1] It is affiliated with the Kiribati Uniting Church (formerly the Kiribati Protestant Church).[2]

It opened in 1900. Circa 2012 the Japanese government funded the construction of a new 500 seat cafeteria because the former one was old and had asbestos problems.[3] The Japanese government paid $97,087 U.S. dollars, about $94,583 Australian dollars.[4]
