Books and Necklace Skills

Books aren't enough for kids in this modern world of acute necessity of skills and lack of employment. Children  from poor families battling chronic poverty need an education that is more than books and makes a difference in their lives. Rubanda Solidarity School is looking into this matter with keen interest and concern. We are championing skills as an important added value to the traditional school syllabus that engages students into theories. Skills motivate students because they introduce the students to creative skills and income. They also sharpen their brains to business mind and creative thinking. Coping up with the modern world where school education is becoming a necessary global tool to survive in an increasing competitive struggle and in an unemployment environment as a big challenge, skills are a way to go to provide knowledge that is easier, practical, community service oriented and quicker to bring in income a difference in their lives. Among the many skills provide for our students, there are " Necklaces" made out of re-recyclable materials as seen in the pictures below. Teachers Immaculate and Peace coordinate the project and are so excited because the project builds the mind of the young, makes income and motivates the children as they start to earn from within the school for their planned needs. Another excitement  having support from the administration our foreign friends who are more than willing to find market for our hand made products at a reasonable and sure price. Please follow our galleys in a classroom of skills.
