Timothy Mutesasira for his guidance and
support.Your executive Committee takes
credit for the tremendous improvement in the
teachers’ welfare, rapid infrastructural

effects of increased enrolment by
recruiting more teachers,
sensitizing ourselves about
strategies of handling larger
numbers and expansion of
accommodation facilities.
The medium term plans are to
have more classrooms, expansion
of the dining hall, expansion of the
sports facilities and the sick bay.

balanced diet with a variety of foodstuffs like
Matooke, Cassava, sweet potatoes, posho, beans,

Once they are found, the trimmed uniform is
