Getting to work

Making the Abato School more beautiful

On our fourth day here in Uganda we began working for the children. We drove to the Abato School early (it’s holidays at the moment – school term starts at the 8th of September) and started painting the new doors. The school was completely without doors for 6 months but now Moses had the opportunity to acquire doors for the school and our first job was to make them more colorful. So Anne and I both grabbed a brush, some yellow paint and gave these doors a new and more inviting look. We also tidied up the classrooms and got rid of stones or beton pieces that were still in there from the construction works. We used a Ugandan broom to outdust the floor and I can honestly say I would’ve not thought that there was so much dust in these rooms. But with hard work, a good cause in mind and the help of our new little friend Edward, who is twelve years old and super energetic, we got the rooms to sparkle.
