Building a Brighter Future in Uganda
Would you like to help a community meet the
needs of their young people?
In Zumbo primary school in north-west
Uganda there are 688 pupils with only 11
teachers and limited facilities. In July 2012, a small team from Jersey will spend four
weeks there helping to build additional classrooms
and a toilet block. While the project has
a building focus, it is about much more than
that and we are not just seeking to recruit
professional builders. It is an opportunity to get to know the community
and forge long-lasting links and friendships.
After the building work, we want to help
teachers to access in-service training through
a distance-learning link we have set up at
Edge Hill University in Lancashire.
A variety of events and activities will be
arranged to help raise funds towards sending
the team to complete this project. watch
this space to see how you can get involved!
