"All Learners"



After building 5 classrooms at Vumbi Primary School, our Community Aid Program also recently bought and delivered 2,200 books for the students on English, Social Studies and Kinyarwanda subjects. The impact these books have was shown on the faces of the students and teachers when we arrived. Previously, 4-5 students shared just one book, now there are enough for almost every student to study from a book of their own.


In appreciation for the building construction (which was completed in June 2009) the teachers and students organized an inauguration ceremony to open the new building. There was singing, dancing, a skit, and speeches. One student wrote the following poem for us and read aloud:
Vincent, author of "All Learners"
  “All Learners”
All Learners take your first duty,
as it is necessary, for our future life.
All Learners, study well, as it is organized,
by our authorities, understanding their advice.
All Learners, if you study well, you get everything,
you get every life, you defend your country, wherever you are.
All Learners, Help me!
Congratulate, Rogers Family Company, and Caferwa,
For what they did! Making this building, which we are celebrating.
I finish congratulating everyone who is here.
God bless you.
Yours, Nduwayezu Vincent
Student at Vumbi School Complex
