About the project

HILLVIEW PRIMARY SCHOOL

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Hillview Primary School is located in Buikwe district east of Kampala. The main activity among the community around is fishing. The project was started by one of the concern community member for children of fishermen to also benefit in the prevailing free education. Unfortunately, government has not taken on the project but the school population is growing at a faster rate. The teacher pupil ratio is 1:70.The school has no permanent structures with a population of over 500 pupils. This situation called for an immediate intervention which UVDA through its activity has taken up and currently we have made 20,000 bricks but the classroom teaching and environment is still wanting. Through the LMTV programme we intend to mobilize the community and improve on the quality of teaching in Hillview Primary School.
