The 2011 school calendar ended with 24 students graduating from nursery to primary school at Rubanda Solidarity school premises.
Congratulations to you all !
The first of December 2011 will always be an unforgettable and historical date at Rubanda Solidarity Nursery and Primary school and the entire community of Rubanda. Amidst jubilations and excitement, 24 of the Nursery Top students graduated to Primary one.
The colorful day was graced by various guests with Ms Vastine representing the district's Education officer, District Inspector of schools as our guest speaker, Mr Ruhumuriza as the diocesan education secretary, parents of the graduands and others, the community members, school children, staff and administration were all part of the colours of the day. It was indeed a moving and an inspiring moment seeing to see these young and great men and women of tomorrow in colourful gowns, a symbol of hope and a bright future. "This is the foundation of all future gowns/degrees to better life", the director general commented.

He emphatically said, "Children are a responsibility for all" and this school is in the realization of this universal and noble call inspired by the very words of Christ, "Leave the little children come to me and do not hinder them for theirs is the kingdom of heaven, Mt 19:14" |

It seems, there is no way in modern times, how man can come out of poverty alienated of quality education which should be an integral development of a child. And nursery education has been curved to fill these gaps that children and the society would miss once not found in their families. Nursery education therefore is aimed at providing the backbone of education which our kids greatly need today more than ever before.
In their inspirational speech (see top right pic.), the graduands thanked God for giving them parents and guardians who care unlike many kids who suffer and are not in school around their communities. For even some of these children's brothers and sisters are not in school because parents can't afford the requirements or others even do not care at all of child education. They know of many of their friends still who are in public school and are not able to distinguish a from b even in grade two.

With special gratitude, the graduands appreciated and thanked all their friends and school friends who partner with the school to make their life better and their school time an enjoyable time. "Thank you all", they conclude.
Then, amidst cheers and laud acclamations from the parents, visitors and the whole congregation, the graduands were matched to the high table for the last part of their ceremony where they enjoyed a delicious lunch before they left for their vacation in the company of their parents and guardians. That was a day to be remembered.

This kid above handles her precious gown as she draws inspirations from the guests of the day into her own future carrier . Let's wait and see what comes out of her as I remember being challenged by one kid who asked me, "Uncle, what's wrong with the adults of today? They do not give us advice, they only shout at us".
Certainly the society of today needs more role models that these kids can look at and rely upon to find a clear way into an easier but complex world.

Thank you for the authentic education you are giving to our children who are our future generation. The strength of the future leaders depends upon this good education you are giving to the children. God bless you. Fr. John Vianney Sunday.
