The Spirit of Reading Starts Here.

Hello everyone,
Greetings from Uganda. It is rainy here, what is it like there in the US? We have recently been busy but thinking about you all the time. We have enough reasons to pride in you all. Thank  you Mrs. Cindy for the courage we have got from you. We have come to realize that it is the fact of this relationship we have that our children have picked the great desire to be at school.
With the simple survey I have taken, all the children who have so far participated in this relationship have not missed school unless it is a serious case of sickness. Those who entirely sleep at school do not take a day without asking me about friends in the USA. This indicates that the communication they make has attracted their interest in being at school all the time. Whereas there are other factors that affect their regular attendance, they always want to be at school.
For this, I would like to continue my appreciation to you for this great work!!!
Thank you for the reading books you donated to us. These books have become a point interest for a number of girls who enjoy reading. From this point, I can realize that the cry of our government and many humanitarian organizations that strive for the girl child education begins here!! Whereas most organizations here and the world over which want to increase girl child education can adopt such tactics to inculcate the interest into the girl child at an early age.
Thank you always and we shall always be proud of you. Thanks to all your other friends in the same struggle.

"IF THEY CAN, THEN WE CAN"

Today we had a community clean up day where we had to move around the community, cleaning and teaching the people about the importance of proper sanitation.
The event was led by primary five pupils. The event was titled "Clean Up Live Healthy"
Do you also have such activities in your community? The next clean up day will  attract the area councilor next month.
We encouraged the community members to value the environment, by avoiding poor disposal of rubbish and human waste to avoid sanitation related diseases. In our area, these are some of the commonest sicknesses that we suffer.
We also encouraged the people to plant trees where possible because the GLOBAL WARMING is a threat to our community and the world as a whole.

Hello Rosie, Andy, Logan, Olivia, Tyler, and Lindsay
I an so glad that I got a chance to write to you once again. How has your life been recently? I have been busy with examinations but finally through with them. 
Yes, we had a nice competition in netball and our school won all the games at zone level, and division level.
We also went up to the district level but it became costly that we could not proceed. We have taken photos and you will see them soon. 

How is Mrs. Cindy? Thank all of you for the generous love you have for us!!! I know God will bless you. Send our greetings to all the teachers.
Yours friend,  
ROGERS.

Hello friends,
It is nice that we have again got the chance to talk to you. We have been so busy with examinations but finally they are done. i hope you are fine. Thank you so much for the books you sent us!!! They are so good to read.
Now that I am a little free with no examinations, i will be spending enough of my time to read them. How is the vacation? They have told us that you are still on holidays. We shall have just a very short term holiday and then we start  our term three.
