Abana Australia, Rugerero management: no more excuses

Yes, indeed Rugerero School complex (that’s how they like to be called now) is geographically VERY isolated. Children and their families lead very insular lives and don’t see much of the rest of the world.
Road communication is appalling. Everything cost extra because of the difficulty of access. It is hard to bring books, cupboards, teacher trainers, food etc.
But one thing is easy to bring: telecommunication – whether it be mobile phones or Internet access.
So, being of the view that good collaboration between Abana Committee in Australia and Rugerero school complex management will be crucial to further progress in the quality of education for children (abana, in Kinyarwanda) I have stressed to both parties that it is now easy for them to stay in touch, ask questions, make suggestions and overcome challenges together. Both the headmistress and Frederic now have an email address, I will give them the email address of the Abana committee and their phone numbers and vice-versa.
No more excuses...
