5 days, 5 photos-A week in the life of African Revival
June 5, 2015With a mid-week national holiday, this week seems to have raced by in a flash. Our UK team in particular have been extremely busy, writing exciting programme proposals! In spite of our shorter working week, we still managed to pack in lots of activities all across northern Uganda. Thank-you for your continued support of our projects, have a lovely weekend!
Monday:
Today, volunteer Jade popped to Koch Goma Primary School to visit the newly re-furbished library. It is absolutely fantastic to hear how these facilities, and learning resources are helping students like Vincent and Grace (pictured) to excel in their studies!
Tuesday:
During an ECD monitoring visit at Nwoya Public Nursery School, Monica and Alex were warmly welcomed by these gorgeous faces. As you can see, the school’s kindergarten students are a lively bunch!
Wednesday:
Our Ugandan offices were closed today for a national holiday (St Martyr’s Day), but our dedicated construction coordinator, Vincent and livelihoods coordinator Francis (pictured), still nipped to Juba Road Primary School to check up on the progress of the teacher’s house which we are building.
Thursday:
Today, Maxwell, one of Jumpstart’s ECD monitors, enjoys a chat and a stroll on school grounds with Sunday, Lacek Nursery School’s fantastic headteacher, as they discuss his pupils’ progress.
Friday:
The livelihoods team are working hard in the school demonstration gardens in the Amuru district, but they are beginning to-literally- see the fruits of their labour, as the crops are now growing nicely!
