Dear Friends,
We thank each one of you for your continued Support. The School term is nearly coming to an end in the next 30 days. Children have developed different skills like Literacy, English, Numbers … GLS has participated in Zonal school competitions and we placed number 5 out of 18 schools –some of our children have been selected to further compete at different levels with in the country. With the school playground in place, we hope to train our children well in Athletics.
We are thrilled to Welcome our Australian Friend to GLS and he is trying to think more options on having a next classroom/Hall for next year as required by Ministry of Education-Options in place are combining with other schools however, this has not worked for us in the past but we thank God for the similar thought again.
On 15-07- 2017, we had a meeting with the Council Planning officer on the New Block site. He encouraged us to press on with a phased building approach to the New Classroom Block and in between changing our drawings to suit this approach, and heavy showers we met a potential builder Yassin to discuss the project. The plan is just to build the latrine block and the ground floor assembly room. I attach a partly finished PDF so that you can see how things are developing.
We have our kind offer of £10k, ~ 45M Ugandan shillings to finance things. By 26 July we should get a final cost price together. We will also cross check his price using the same cost engineer who costed the original project.
Also on the agenda will be a borehole and tank for water for the site, including the new latrine block. There is also additional work to be done on the staff houses to ensure that there are 2 married quarters. David will be retiring from the project and we deeply thank him for his efforts towards GLH building needs and may God bless his new steps.
Please Pray for
A-Continued safety and health of all involved
B-GLH, GLS and GLV to live up to their names
C- Finance to do a phased building approach to the New Classroom Block and that the Ministry of Education will give us Examination Centre.
Blessings,
James (Project Leader)
