We were not deterred by bumpy roads to the Busagazi School on an island in Lake Victoria between Jinja and Kampala, Uganda. We had to alight from the truck and walk the final kilometer or so up a dusty red road to the school site. In the last few months we constructed two classrooms at this school where only one existed before… to serve about 600 students. Since we came on board to help, another Croatian organization has also constructed classrooms. We were warmly greeted by the community even though our visit coincided with a school holiday. An enjoyable day, all in all, drenched in colour and joyful community celebration.
