Hello friends, it is always a pleasure to write to you. I am Vivian once again. The joy I have is over my heart. When my teacher told me that he had got me a place in a high school, I felt the world had come down to me! How happy I am, you cannot tell. I now go to St Peters High School, and it was a school of my dream.
I was given the vacancy after he told them that I am good at dancing. The principal of the school decided to come and watch me during the last music and dance competitions we had and said I could now join him. It is one month now since joined the new school but I am even happy that I am challenging the old students.
Here in we were posing for a photo after the dance.
We were ready for a dance, Mrs. Susan came to our school and found us training, but finally we were able to win the competitions. We are dressed in dancing costumes.

The Local Xylophone and the NGALABI drum.
Do you see how enjoyable drumming is? I love the way people drum that long drum. It is called ENGALABI in the local language. Above is me Katrina and in the next picture is our trainers playing the local Xylophone.
The Different Drums we have.
We have many drums at our school, when you want to learn how to drum, I can teach you. I love dancing and being in the choir. In the choir my role is always to drum and I can dance sometimes.

I Can Now Drum & It is Fun.
Hey friends, how are you doing at school? I think you are in your holidays. We are still busy and we could not write to you until now. We have been writing many examinations recently. i am now in primary seven and I hope to do well in all the examinations. Do you have many examinations to finish before you join the high school?
I the picture I was trying to learn how to drum. It is a local drum made in Uganda and it controls all other drums. It produces the highest pitch. At school we have won many drums whenever we win a competition. We have just won another competition in June. I do not really dance much but I love to learn more. My friends Vivian and Sharuwa have just won bursaries because of dancing, so I think it is good that I have also started the hard work.
What are you doing during your summer holidays. In Uganda there is no summer holidays. It is always hot or rainy. But even still, the sunshine is not too much.

HAPPIEST MOMENT WE HAD.
Hello, how are you dear friends? We are really very happy! We just had music and dance competition and it was much fun when we got the first place out of 31 schools that participated. I loved the way we all worked together and how we surprised every one! Do you also have a dance group at your school? How is Mrs. Cindy and Mrs. Susan?
We loved the video you sent us and I hope we can also send you some of the videos of our dances.
Yours,
MERCY (Left) and in the Middle is Shamim and right is Carol.

I AM GOING TO SCHOOL AGAIN!!!!!
Hey friends, how are you these days? I think we have been silent for so long!! Oh, we have really missed writing to you. I hope you are all fine. How is Mrs. Cindy? We miss her so much. We love you all at McKay Creek. It sounds a very great school. One day I hope I can come and see you.
It is Sharuwa, at the middle of the behind line. I am recently so happy that next term I will also be joining the secondary school. I had no chance to start school immediately because I had no money but recently my teacher found for me a bursary at one school. I like dancing and I have been making a lot of training. I am nervous about what life will be like in a secondary school. But I know I will catch up easily.
I have spent much time using the computer you gave us and it is so great to me now. When i go to school again, I will not be a first time user and I bet I will challenge many people there.
How are the other teachers at your school?
Please send our sincere love to all people at your school.
Yours,
Sharuwa. N.

Best friend Dancers.
Dear our favorite friends, how have you been recently? Here in Kampala we are fine and indeed very happy to be sharing with you again! It has been long time since we wrote to you but may be you have also been on holidays. We are three best friends, left to right is me, Vivian, Sharuwah and on right is Sumayiya. We all sat for our primary leaving examinations last year and indeed excelled very well, thanks to our caring teachers. We are wearing the dancing costumes when we were recently taking part in local music and dance competitions. It was so fun when we emerged as first best choir in the competitions. I (Vivian) was the best actor and Sumayiya was the best dancer and we all won prizes.
We really thank you for the love you have shown us because we have the courage because of you.
I wish you get the chance to come to our school and see how we dance. I know you will like it because all the people who have come to our school have always liked the dances and music.
Best to you all.
Your friends,
Vivian, Sharuwa and Sumayiya.
