Some children share their letter with their Teacher |
A selected number of Children of Kasese Humanist Primary
School totaling 25 are participating in
a Penpal Letter Exchange Service with children from some schools in the United
States.
The project was initiated by Lylah Mouton, a 7 year old
child who is currently raising funds and material assistance towards Uganda
Humanist Schools.

Kasese Humanist Primary School management is engaging 25
pupils to participate in this letter writing/photo exchange program and so far
children from the USA have wrote in their first letters which have been
anxiously received by our pupils most of which are in the age bracket of 7-13 years.
The children are happy to be part of the project as they
have got friends overseas with whom they can share with views, news and life on
either side.

The first letters from US came along with 3 disposable
cameras to aid in shooting photos by the children themselves and these photos
will be made available to their USA counterparts. In addition to this the
school got 2 electric bells bought for the school by the Dad to Lylah Mr. Mario
Mouton. These bells are going to be installed at the school and be used to
alert the time of changing lesions, calling children to assembly time and so
on.
The photos below show some children after receipt of their
letters.
