WEDNESDAY 5th Decmber 2012
Have just come back from a site meeting, both with Francis Welder who is securing the classroom windows and with Alex Builder who constructed the temporary classroom in the Spring of this year.
Mary Mukonyezi ,the Headteacher has been complaining that the thatched roof of the temporary classroom is leaking.Whilst the coolness and space of this locally built classroom  (wood and  thatch) is very much appreciated a leaking roof and muddy floor is not! Alex says that he can cure the leaks - it rained heavily overnight so I was able to see first hand the problem this morning- by creating a ceiling of wire sand and  plastic bags. The total cost of the sand, wire and plastic will be sh.600.000 (170 pounds sterling).
HELP!!!!!!!!
Meanwhile I do have the money for the  metal shutters  etc for those P4 classroom windows, courtesy  of Furzedown Primary School. Webale munno! The fundi arrived as we were meeting and started removing the wooden shutters so I  shall join Baz in a cup of coffee - it's cool today after the heavy rain - and go back to school at 11o clock to photograph the windows etc. My camera (Daniel's!)  was charging after yesterday's trip to Rumpungu village  with Dr. Abraham to assess Harriet. More of that with pictures in the next Blog.
