THE PRESENTATION OF THE REQUEST

I. Summary Statement
Namutamba Demonstration School has made 75 years of existence and there is need to celebrate its achievements as well as re-discover its strength by giving it a big push to meet the challenges ahead.

Namutamba Demonstration School started as a community school to cater for children of Estate employees of the Lea Wilson’s in 1936 and now it has a number of challenges which call for our cooperative effort to see it meet the expectations of a school of its status.

III. Problem Statement
The school has a number of infrastructures in poor shape; the teachers’ houses are in appalling situation, many of the school facilities are in a poor shape hence cannot enhance the excellence of the children, the school does not have a single a computer, children don’t grow food yet there is land that can be utilized to see them have food, the sports grounds are in a poor shape and need to be worked on, sports equipment lacking, toilets need to be worked on, water is fetched from the valley yet there can be water harvesting from the school buildings, the welfare of teachers is poor, there is need to boost it, a sick bay needs to be equipped and a school nurse in place, there is need to increase on the non-teaching staff from a force of only two, there is need to procure a machine to help in the production of children’s periodical examinations, putting up a kitchen worth the status of the school and improving boarding facilities and lighting at night for the children.

IV. Goal & Objectives
1) To have the status of the School uplifted given the number of years it has been in place and the products from it,
2) To boost the facilities that can enhance better learning of the children,
3) To see that crop and animal husbandry are undertaken for better nutrition of the children,

iii. To get the members of Namutamba Community actively involved in the innovations to see the school better,
iv. To properly plan what we would like the school to be like,

VI. Budget
You will appreciate; I am not on ground so it is difficult for me to come up with a budget, but I think this can be worked on when many of us get interested in this subject. We all need to play an active role. There is no politics in this, as long as you went through or ever attended at Namutamba your ideas are most welcome.
