Kasese Humanist Primary school, a school run and managed by Kasese United Humanist Association on Sunday 16th October hosted a team of 4 visitors from East African Playgrounds Organization, a UK Charity that engages in activities of constructing play grounds for local schools and communities in East Africa.
The Team was so grateful visiting the school, they were welcomed to the school by the School Director Bwambale Robert and were toured around the school together with the school Head Teacher Masereka Ndyanabo David.
The Team explained to us that right now they are embarking on a series of play ground projects and encouraged us to look at helping us with uplifting our ground in some years to come. The play ground we have at the school not only benefits the school alone but also the local community around Railway Village.

First video show at Kasese Humanist School

2011-10-04T02:32:00.000-07:00

On a cool Monday Evening the children at Kasese Humanist Primary School were entertained to watch a film about the usefulness of science that is presented in a songlike manner. The tile of the first film was They might be Giants.... Here comes Science.

The children were very happy seeing this film as it was filled with cartoons . The school Head Teacher , The school Director Bwambale Robert plus all the teaching staff attended the show.

The second film shown to the children was about the life of mammals which was also enjoyed.

The video screen plus a DVD Player was provided by the school Director and the films within the custody of Kasese United Humanist Association were provided by Daniel Rosenberg based in Hong Kong who was among a team of volunteers that were sent to the Kilembe school in 2010.

As the school now has Electricity, its now easy for our pupils to access study on screens, computers or even go online.

Free thinkers the world over should aendevor to visit the school or support the school project materially or financially so that the school stands the stiff competition between religious schools and secular based schools.

More film shows will be shown to the pupils once in a while .

Kasese Humanist Primary School has received a donation of a Printer, Mats & some scholastic supplies from Ms Jenny Julien based in Miami Forida in the United States of America.
The donation was delivered to the school through the School Director Bwambale Robert who displayed the computer printer plus all the donated gifts to the pupils. The school Director thanked Jenny Julien for the donation and also told the gathering that the school is going to be having electricity soon as wiring of the class room blocks, the Laboratory plus the school office is now complete.
What is limiting right now is the funds amounting to $200 US needed by the Uganda Electricity Board (UMEME) for a fresh connection. The school director is encouraging friends of Kasese Humanist Primary School to continue supporting the school materially and financially as the school still needs computers for learning on, more text books and improving on the meals offered to the teachers and the children plus improving on the salaries we give to our teachers.
Below are photos of the event when the Printer plus the donated gifts being shown to the children at the school campus.

Kasese Humanist Primary School is going to erect a fresh Tree on the roof top of its Administrative Office, plans are in progress putting in place a shelter on the roof top and this time its not going to be an iron roof but a tree shade. The tree is going to be planted in the already constructed tree enclosure which has been fixed on top of the School Administration Office courtesy of The School Founder Bwambale Robert. He donated a bag of cement plus all the bricks to this cause and in addition he has provided a tree plus a number of flowers to put in the tins which are being placed at the extreme corners on the roof top.
The tree symbolizes our strong commitment to preserving nature and protecting the Environment. Upon completion the Tree Enclosure plus the strategically placed tins will accommodate the soil and a fresh tree plus flowers will be planted in there. Both the tin and the Tree enclosure will be painted and messages will be added on to them.
Below are some picture shots showing the progress of the work.

Below is a Photo showing the Plastered Tree Enclosure with some vents at either sides all over to facilitate aeration of the soil micro organisms as we shall be adding soil rich in manure to facilitate the tree to survive.

Update on second term 2011 at kasese humanist primary school

2011-06-29T05:17:00.000-07:00

Pupils at Kasese Humanist Primary School have begun sitting for mid-term examinations which is a paper released by nationwide examination setters authorized to set examinations to Ugandan Schools.
A total of 230 pupils at the school this term are now busy in their exams that are to be done up to friday 01 this week .
Right now at the school durings Games Time, our students are busy practising Music so that we tap out those talented in the field of music so we can set up a School Choir. This Choir is going to be releasing music that we intend to put on CDs in MP3 and MP4 formats and this can generate income which can help in boosting the school. However we still use the local drums and we could require modern music equipments.
The international community is encouraged to assist in supporting the school such that we accomplish our goals of promoting free thought in style and disapprove those who think that being Atheist or Humanist is not good, what matters is to look at our selves as humans and that is it!,we have to look at ways of making life better for all Humanity irrespective of your beliefs,where you come from,where you are black,white,coloured etc .
You can Sponsor a child in our school as a means of supporting the school. A Child Sponsorship Form has been placed on our website so you can fill out the form and submit it then we shall communicate back to you. The link is here below:
http://kasesehumanistschool.webs.com/sponsorachildform.htm and an update of the list indicating children already sponsored plus those awaiting sponsorship is on this very website too, the link to the page is at the link below:

A second parents meeting is planned for next weekend on Sunday 10th July 2011.
We are in the 5th Week of second term and we have 7 more weeks towards end of Second Term.
I send deep thanks to all friends and organizations that have stood by our side and help in supporting our school. I can not thank person by person, that is the reason i have put the information on our school website.

Renovation exercise of the Staff Toilets at the kasese humanist school

2011-06-09T01:45:00.000-07:00

Kasese Humanist Primary school in an effort to strengthening the school hygiene is currently
putting in place a Staff Toilet.
Currently both the children and the member of staffs were utilizing the 3 Door Toilet that was
constructed in the late months of November last year as the school was making initial
preparations of the school site.
The fact that the building properties were formerly being used by workers of the defunct
Uganda Railways Corporation, they had their own toilets but lacked a proper sewage system,
the pipes were blocked, dilapidated and rusty and bushes could be noticed around the housing
properties. The collapse of the company caused all the social infrastructure in this area and
many parts where they had railway stations to collapse. All the services came to a stand still and
those who remained occupying those houses didn't care in maintaining them. Also owing to the
high level of poverty, unemployment worsened the situation.
As we were laying out plans to construct a new toilet to be used by our staffs at the school, we
identified the pipes that were taking the wastes to an unknown Septic Tank which was finally
discovered just adjacent to the pit latrine that we had put earlier and the presence of this septic
Tank is good news to able us not to incur lots of expenses as all that is needed is to remove the
contents in that tank and leave it empty, re-cementing the inside part of the tank and also
building around the two openings of this Septic Tank plus renovation work on the toilets
buildings.
I am appealing to Friends of Kasese Humanist Primary School where ever they might be to assist
us in donating to the school so that we put every thing in the right order. The Uganda Ministry
of Education & Sports encourages school establishment to have separate toilets for the Staff
from that of the students.
You can watch a video clip of the septic tank at the KUHA SCHOOL PROJECT on You Tube at the link below:

Below is a photo of the proposed Staff Toilet, in the Photograph Bwambale Robert, The School
Director is seen keeping a watch as labourers do their work of tracing the path taken by the
underground sewage pipes.

Happy winter solistice celebrations to all free thinkers

2010-12-15T20:32:00.000-08:00

Happy Holidays! Remember, this season celebrate reason… and don’t let Christians hijack a great secular, pluralistic holiday!

if you are celebrating any of the western traditions of Christmas this year, remember that you are actually enjoying the rituals and activities of several ancient religions whose traditions have been borrowed by the Christians over the years for the celebration of the birth of Christ. Buy presents, enjoy family, eat good food. We can still enjoy a season of good memories and fun ancient traditions, even without god… especially when those traditions didn’t start as Christian traditions anyway.

As free thinkers, lets celebrate WINTER SOLSTICE

Just smile and Enjoy your LIFE as we say BYE to 2010

HAPPY CELEBRATIONS FROM KASESE UNITED HUMANIST ASSOCIATION
