| Plans for
2012 |
|
9th January 2012 |
|
|
During the year we aim to undertake, at the very least,
the following projects: |
|
|
|
Completion of Kisimenyi Phase I |
|
What: completion of construction of
classrooms, library, nursery school and |
|
office, installation of sanitation facilities and
rainwater harvesting, and supply |
|
of furniture for classrooms and other facilities |
|
|
|

our work at Kisimenyi and see what stage we're at >>> |

|
|
|
A new tuition block at Makwasinyi |
|
What: construction of a three classroom
tuition block |
|
Why: The enrolment at Makwasinyi is
ever growing and classrooms that |
|
were already too small are becoming ever more cramped.
The school not |
|
only needs bigger classrooms but more of them too and
this project is the |
|
first stage in helping to ease congestion. |
|
|
 |
|
|
|
When: starting in the first quarter of
2012
|
|
Cost:
around £15,000 (£5,000 per classroom) |
|
|
|
|
|
Bungule classroom renovations (Phase II) |
|
What: Following our work in December
2011 to improve the exterior of the |
|
4-room tuition block at Bungule by replacing the roofing
sheets and building |
|
a veranda on the front elevation, in 2012 we will
complete the renovations by |
|
focusing on the interior: installing new windows,
erecting ceilings, building |
|
storage cupboards, and replastering and painting |
|
|
 |
|
|
|
When: April 2012 (during the Easter
break in order to minimise disruption) |
|
Cost: around £5,000 |
|
How can you help? This project is
already funded |
|
|
|
|
|
Continuation of classroom furniture programme |
|
What: the supply of modern steel-framed tables and
chairs for every pupil |
|
Why: existing timber work benches are
not only in short supply but also of a |
|
poor design, offering little space for working and
storage. Furthermore, many |
|
are badly damaged and worn. |

|
|
|
When: throughout the year |
|
How can you help? a twin-desk and
chairs for lower primary pupils costs |
|
£45 whilst an individual flip-top desk and chair for
upper primary pupils costs |
|
£30 |
|
|
|
|
|
Girls sanitation facilities at Bungule |
|
What: a block of 4 modern sanitation
units for primary girls |
|
Why: the existing toilets are sinking
under their own weight and there is the |
|
very real danger of them collapsing into the pit below
when the soil is less |
|
stable during rainy periods. |
|
|
 |
|
|
|
When:
as soon as possible |
