Toowa Team
Virtual Kiltwalk 2021
April 2021
To raise funds for the school and the classroom rebuild project, a few members of “Friends of Toowa” team took part in Scotland’s Virtual Kiltwalk 2021. As this was a virtual event we decided to be the first to do the walk in 3 countries at the same time. Scotland, England and Uganda!. Kathleen sent some Kilts and “See you Jimmy” hats to Uganda for Elijah and Mike.

Keep up to date with our post updates and progress at Toowa.
New library and teachers staff room making great progress
The walls and roof are built, work started on backfilling the inside. The work is progressing very fast and we look forward to seeing the completed building soon
Electricity at the school
Elijah gave us an update during a trustees meeting of all the projects completed and progress updates of those still running. He proudly announced that the village of Toowa is slowly getting electricity and as a result, one of the classrooms and the office at the school now has power and light. Something we all take for granted is such a long awaited necessity for the school. We are hoping to run wiring into the dormitory and around the school to improve security at nighttime.
New Library and teachers staff room making good progress
Elijah reported the progress recently on our latest build, amazing progress as we have seen with the project team in the past. We will keep you informed with more photos soon.
