The construction of the nursery at Maranatha Primary School, Kizigo, is well underway. The foundation was dug last week and the hardcores put in place ready for the concrete to be laid this week. Not only that but brick making is close to completion with about 6,000 bricks already made. One energy saving stove was installed in the kitchen at Maranatha last week. This stove is predominantly going to be used to boil the water required to make porridge and posho.

The kitchen at Kizigo Secondary School has had its first week of full usage during a busy first week of term. The cook is enjoying how easy and efficient the stoves are to operate compared to the wood fires previously used for cooking. This week the two 20,000 litre water tanks at the school are to be painted by James, Alex, Richard, Annette, Sam and Phoebe. Sam and Phoebe are 2 gap year students, staying at the Busoga Trust Guest house with James and Alex, who will be helping out in the village this week.

On the 18th of June, HYT is planning a 24km run/cycle from the HQ in Jinja to Kizigo. The aim of this event will be to fund raise for the next 'One Village at a Time'. the event will be undertaken not only by James and Alex but also all the trainees of Kizigo village and friends. Any support, however great of small, would be greatly appreciated and will go towards completing our ambitious target of £2,000. For more information please visit
