Do your students say they hate school?

… why not show them our school.

***************A short presentation of the challenges we face at the

Springs Alive Children’s Center

Springs Alive Children’s Center is a school and day care center in Kakiri village in

Uganda

This is our flag … and this is where Uganda is in Africa

Kakiri village is near the capital Kampala

Our classrooms are very simple …

but we are proud of what we’ve built!

Our classrooms have no windows …

but we need all the light because …

our classrooms have no electricity ...

.. we only learn during the day

Our food is cooked on an open fire …

..in our little kitchen

..but we learn better when

we’re not hungry.

Our classrooms have dust floors so we have to sprinkle water when we

study … …

… but there’s no running water …

… so we fetch it in from the well

… and carry it back to school.

We make our own benches …

We make our own desks …

Our library may be small …

… but the books are well used.

Our teachers are volunteers …

.. they teach from the heart.

We thank God for what we have …

Each and every one of us!

We know that education will improve our lives …

… and we will learn,no matter what challenges we face!

Thanks for watching our short presentation!
