Spot the Progress - Onwards and Upwards

Last week Rosie Brown, a nurse from Homer Green, Buckinghamshire, came to work at Potter's Village for about 2 years. Its not her first time in Uganda. As well as visiting Kisoro before she has also worked at Kisiizi Hospital for 4 months. So we have helped to introduce her to the sights in Kisoro.




On Sunday we went to the service at the Cathedral – where David and Sarah stand head and shoulders above everybody else!!!! It was the first week of term so the service was packed with children from several surrounding schools. This makes it a bit of a challenge for the Sunday school teachers. The two teachers normally have about 25 church children who go out part way through the service for their lessons. On this Sunday there must have been about 200 children joining them. It makes lessons difficult to plan!!!




After that we took Rosie for lunch at the Travellers Rest Hotel, The manager has two dogs, one of which is little more than a puppy, called Sushi (on the basis that the older dog, Simba, sometimes looks as if he fancies a bit of a snack).




The new babies unit at Potters Village Home for Vulnerable Children is progressing. The roof has been finished and the builders have started to render. This will be the new flat for Rosie. The new babies unit will mean that their current bedroom can become the medical suite that Rosie has come to help set up. This means that any premature babies, or those who become ill, can be cared for at the Home rather than being transferred to the local hospital.




And, after a year in Kisoro, Irene has at last found some more of her drawers!!!!!

Some weeks ago we mentioned we had got our first drawer in the kitchen unit we bought. This week Irene got 4 more!!! This means that at long last she can put her clothes away.

That is progress!!!!
