Turkeys fighting at CALM yesterday evening and children watching happily 

Turkeys are some of the birds that dwell in CALM. This year the community has purchased many to equip the poultry. Every evening after school children at CALM get involved into co-curricula activities such as music, drama, football, rugby, etc.

Sometimes surviving in the village becomes easy due to the plenty of fruits like jack fruits, sugarcane, guavas, mangoes etc.  Since my mother was taking a long time to visit me I grew up knowing my grandmother as my mother and I was calling her “mother”.

The story begins on 27/Nov/1995. I was born to the late Kasule Benedicto and the late Nalubowa Florence. My father died in 1999 when I was four years old and my mother passed on in 2012 when I was in Primary Form Two. Until the time my parents both passed away, I had not even spent a year with them, except the time when I was still a baby.

Six new staff members at Don Bosco primary school.

At the beginning of this year we found it worthy to add more new staff members at Don Bosco primary school since the number of the pupils are also increasing highly these are qualified teachers who have got general knowledge they are not specific like any others teachers from other schools ours are special ones, now so far our school admits pupils from primary to primary five and within the two weeks of the school opening we have got twelve new pupils and the six new teachers  three from Uganda and three from Belgium of which I think ratio is proportional. However ,the Belgian teachers arrived on 7^th of February 2017  .
