The more than 550 children at Kisimenyi are all eager to learn, desperate for a decent education. However their school is in a shockingly woeful state. The handful of crumbling, cramped classrooms are wholly unconducive to enjoyable and productive learning; the few toilets are so dangerous that children feel safer, in the words of the headmaster, to "help themselves in the nearby bush"; and the nearest source of water is a 10km walk away.

Together with all stakeholders we have put together an ambitious plan that will comprehensively and drastically improve the situation at the school. With all existing facilities far beyond repair we will build an entirely new school within the existing school compound, to include: new furnished primary classrooms, a dedicated nursery school, a purpose-built stocked library, modern sanitation facilities, rainwater harvesting facilities and an eco-kitchen and kitchen garden.
