Rwentutu Vocational School — Classrooms for Africa

Rwentutu Vocational School
Kabirizi, Uganda

Project In Progress:

Phase One: 8 classrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 dorms, administration block, water project funded by donors from Western Canada

Background:

Rwentutu Vocational School is being built close to Rwentutu Christian School, a primary school located in a very poor rural area in the Kasese District of Western Uganda between the town of Kasese and the Queen Elizabeth National Park. It is close to the Rwenzori Mountains and the border with the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Being located in a rural area, the school will primarily serve students looking for vocational training in fields that are relevant to the area in which it is located.

Since 2008, Classrooms for Africa has supported the completion of four projects at Rwentutu Christian School and has been impressed by the manner in which the work has been done, the standard of education, and the care taken of the buildings and grounds. These standards will be expected at the vocational school as well.
