Opiyo said the school is in dire need of both classrooms and latrines.
The head teacher said the classrooms also pose risks to health of the pupils.
The school board of Management Chairman Paul Nyakwae said they had put all possible efforts to construct classrooms in the school. But they are facing financial constraints to put up the standard classrooms and latrines required in the school.
"As a community, we have tried our best because all structures in the school have been built by the community except one which was constructed by Ndhiwa NG-CDF. I appeal to government agencies and well-wishers to intervene and help us construct classrooms and latrines in this school," Nyakwae said.
He argued that pupils' latrine which sank resulted from poor topography.
"Our school is established in a black cotton soil which is weak. We appeal for construction of proper buildings in the school," Nyakwae said.
Head teacher Opiyo said the poor infrastructure has impeded academic performance in the school.
