Hello everyone, my name is Jane and I'm the Secretary of Adelante Africa.
00:01:09
And I want to talk to you today because next week, or the following week, on the 1st of June,
00:01:20
you're going to do a charity run for Adelante Africa.
00:01:28
So I want to tell you a little bit about Adelante Africa to motivate you to do the run.
00:01:34
Now, I want to make a link between your school and the school in Uganda.
00:01:40
So to start off with, I want to tell you how it started.
00:01:48
we um we uh went to Uganda in 2008 and we were in a lorry that was converted for tourists
00:01:53
and we got stuck in the mud and we saw the school and the children who go to it
00:02:04
and we found that the school was very poor and the children uh the children were were were the
00:02:10
the poorest of the poor children in the area.
00:02:18
So we decided to make a new school for them.
00:02:22
And in 2010, we built the school.
00:02:25
Here's the school, the new St. Joseph's,
00:02:29
and here are the children at the school.
00:02:31
And the school is now a very active and growing school.
00:02:34
And I want to let the children tell you about it themselves.
00:02:38
So here we go.
00:02:42
This is St. Joseph's Figueza Primary School.
00:02:43
It is located in the western region of Uganda.
00:02:46
These are our classrooms.
00:02:50
We have two national flags,
00:02:53
Uganda national flag and the Eastern African flag.
00:02:55
My name is Silao Vifin.
00:03:02
I am in P7 class.
00:03:04
I am 13 years old.
00:03:06
These are our teachers.
00:03:12
And we have there even the head teacher.
00:03:16
Okay, this is the head teacher there,
00:03:20
the one that's been speaking on the telephone.
00:03:22
and here there's a little boy who wants to speak to you i love my school saint joseph i'm in
00:03:26
primary five but we have a problem of desks we have 11 desk only we are 66 children but we sit
00:03:35
six on on one desk others sit on the floor while writing others stand while writing
00:03:49
so he's saying that they have a problem they don't have their they have a lot of children in class
00:04:02
but only 11 desks now this girl is going to talk to you my name is i'm in the primary six class
00:04:06
This is from El Fix Gras.
00:04:17
That's a nice way to greet your teachers, isn't it?
00:04:59
You have to learn how to do that clapping. You say, welcome, teachers, and give them a clap.
00:05:01
OK, so the rest of this talk, I'm going to answer the questions that you sent me.
00:05:06
So, first of all, what language do they speak at school?
00:05:13
Well, I think that you've heard that from P3, when they're eight years old, they speak English at school.
00:05:16
and do they wear uniforms? I think you probably saw that they do wear uniforms. Most children
00:05:26
wear uniforms. Some children are too poor and the parents can't buy the uniforms but most children
00:05:33
do wear uniforms. How many children go to your school? Well there are 614 children at the school.
00:05:40
Some of the classes have as many as 100 children in each class. What celebrations do you have at
00:05:50
school well they have christmas and easter like us and it which is the muslim uh festivity they
00:05:57
have ugandan holidays like independence day and they have international holidays like international
00:06:04
women's day that they celebrate every year how do children go to school well you can see in this
00:06:11
photo that the children go to school on foot the um the uh the there aren't any school buses
00:06:20
or or trains and cars and no cars either because cars are very expensive so all children go to
00:06:30
school by foot and sometimes they take they they walk as much as five kilometers to get to school
00:06:39
what is the hardest thing for some children well sickness because this area is is very poor
00:06:47
and they don't have money to go to the doctor or to buy medicines so atlanta africa sends every week
00:06:58
we send this school nurse to the school and she takes medicines so she goes to the school
00:07:07
and and and treats the children and you can see there are many children for her to treat look
00:07:14
these are all the little children and then here are the older children all going to see the nurse
00:07:20
and this little girl would like to say tell you about another thing that is hard for children
00:07:26
so you see there are 614 children at school but there are many children who don't go to school
00:07:34
they stay at home and work with their parents on the land so what do you eat for lunch
00:07:45
now unfortunately this video is not working i don't know why not i'm sorry um but it was a
00:07:53
video of the children having lunch and they eat a maize flour they eat a thing called posho which
00:07:59
is made of maize flour and they eat it with beans and in um and if possible some green vegetables
00:08:07
they can they have them then they don't they don't eat bread usually but as a special and special
00:08:16
occasions they eat bread this was at christmas so every morning for breakfast they eat porridge
00:08:25
this is porridge which is also made with maize flour and water and a little bit of milk if they
00:08:31
can if they have some milk and but but very occasionally they eat bread as a special treat
00:08:37
but they don't eat anything on the bread there's no nofia or i don't know what you eat on your
00:08:43
bread but they just eat bread on its own without anything and then their sweeties these are their
00:08:50
sweeties this is a sugar cane and it's like a stick and you pull off the outer bit and inside
00:08:57
it's sweet. So this is what they have as a special treat. What's your favourite thing at school and
00:09:04
which subject do you like most? Well the school was closed but what I did was ask some of the
00:09:12
children in the children's home who go to St Joseph's to answer the questions. So here you go.
00:09:19
Okay, what favorite thing do you like at school? Yes, Grace? I like writing notes. Good girl. Rosie? With my friends. Good girl. Your son? I like reading at school. Very good.
00:09:25
Which subject do you like most?
00:09:53
Kato?
00:09:57
I like English 1 most.
00:09:58
Very good.
00:10:00
Grace?
00:10:01
I like mathematics most.
00:10:02
Very good.
00:10:05
Rosie?
00:10:06
I like English most.
00:10:06
Thank you.
00:10:09
Good.
00:10:11
The video is not a very good quality and the accents are a bit difficult.
00:10:12
So here, you'll see here, I forgot to tell you,
00:10:17
But here at the side, you'll see that I've written the answers, what they say, so that you understand them.
00:10:19
All right, so what do you want to do in the future?
00:10:27
Again, here are children from St. Joseph's who stay at the children's home answering your questions.
00:10:30
And look here, you can see here the things that they say.
00:10:38
Okay, so you can see they want to be very big jobs in the future,
00:10:42
including a prime minister and a head teacher good okay so what animals can you see at school
00:11:22
now in Uganda there are lots of birds you see birds everywhere so here this is this is a very
00:11:30
little bird it's a kingfisher and this is a very big bird it's a really big bird it makes the
00:11:37
branches bend but you can see it's very beautiful it's very it's blue it's got a blue a blue crest
00:11:43
and creepy crawlers lots of spiders and caterpillars and reptiles here's a beautiful
00:11:50
blue lizard there are lots of lizards like this in Uganda and sometimes you can see snakes too
00:11:59
sorry there's a snake sometimes you can see snakes too what games do you play well the children in
00:12:06
Uganda do not have toy shops. So the toys that they play with are made from things that they
00:12:14
have at home. So here you can see there's a bicycle, but it's made of wood. And here there's
00:12:21
a dolly that's made of leaves, banana leaves, these leaves from the banana, the banana plants.
00:12:28
then this is this is a game that they've made one is from a um a tube like um i think it's
00:12:36
probably bamboo that's hollow in the middle and look what he does he's amazing amazing yeah
00:12:44
i think it's okay and here watch this watch carefully
00:13:06
can you see that they get a leaf and they cut about half of one side off and the other side
00:13:10
cut the other the alternate side they cut the other side off so there's like one side here
00:13:28
one side here can you see here there's one side and there's the other side they've cut that bit
00:13:34
off and they've cut that bit off and then they stick a twig bit of wood in the middle and when
00:13:39
they run it goes round and round in the wind it's like a a homemade helicopter and this is a this is
00:13:46
a race that you might like to to try to try yourselves they have here a bowl with water
00:13:54
and cups they run to the bowl pick water up put it in their mouth as much as they can put in
00:14:01
and then they run you see this little boy's his cheeks are full of water and look what they
00:14:09
okay so the idea is the first person to fill up the bottle is the winner of the race
00:14:17
so it's quite a fun race what sports are popular at school and these they're playing netball which
00:14:32
is very similar to basketball and that's a very popular game especially for girls and this is
00:14:41
football and in Uganda boys and girls play football and these are girls playing football actually
00:14:49
good how does your foundation help families well we do lots of things we we have a children's home
00:14:56
we give fruit trees to to families you help with those and then we have a a school for for a nursery
00:15:06
and early primary school we uh some Spanish doctors go to Uganda to to to operate and we
00:15:15
have a class a hairdressing and a sewing class and we also have a secondary school so we have
00:15:24
lots of different ways of helping the community especially with education here are the doctors
00:15:29
that were there in Uganda last year here they are operating and this is what they did
00:15:36
188 patients 76 surgeries and nine of those were on children this is the young women sewing and
00:15:45
hairdressing classes here is the sewing class here is the hairdressing class then the hairdressers
00:15:55
the the sewing class we give them machines and then they can go to the villages and make clothes
00:16:03
for their for for people in the villages to earn money and this girl has started a saloon she was
00:16:09
in the hairdressing class and now she has a saloon. Do you sing songs at school? Well again
00:16:16
I have asked the children in Amwana Tugendi to sing you, the children's home, to sing you a song
00:16:24
that they sing at school. So this is a song that they sing at St Joseph's but the children aren't
00:16:31
wearing uniform because it's holiday time. Okay so here let's see it so you can read that you can
00:16:37
read the words here. This is the chorus and this is the song.
00:16:43
OK, as you can see, that's a great song.
00:17:18
All right. Now, these are the questions that the children have written for you.
00:17:41
so I've answered the questions that you asked the children in Uganda and now they would like to ask
00:17:46
you these questions I'll send the questions to your to your teachers but just I think there's
00:17:51
a couple I think it says here do you have fellowships at school I think we call those
00:17:57
clubs so do you have clubs at school and the last question do you do handiwork at your school
00:18:02
that's like things like learning to sew or making baskets or making pottery so do you do those sort
00:18:09
of things at school all right so I hope this has been interesting for you and I hope you're all
00:18:17
motivated and ready to do the run on the 1st of June and I'm going to be there I'm coming to run
00:18:26
with you so see you on the 1st of June okay bye
