Archbishop’s Twitter (X)Thread on his just concluded visit to Nabumali High School.
@Archbp_COU: “It’s been a joy today being back to Nabumali High School in a space of 11 months. When I visited the School last year, I pledged to be part of the advocates for the restoration of its lost glory.
There is a lot happening and I was glad to commission and tour a number of projects.
It’s very unfortunate that the School has time and again been among traditional Schools earmarked for general renovation but to date no such activity has taken place! Dormitories, laboratories, and staff houses need serious attention. Ministry of Education and Sports should pick serious interest in this.
Nabumali H/S started in 1912 by Missionaries (112 years ago). The Headteacher, Mrs. Margaret Nabudde informed me that they have 728 students: 340 Boys and 388 Girls (exclusive of S.5 class) with 46 teachers on Government payroll, 25 not on payroll and 64 non teaching staff with only 4 on Government payroll.
Nabumali High School as one of the oldest traditional Schools needs to be given special attention in Human Resource and Infrastructure for it to regain its lost glory. I thank the Old Students under Nabumali Old Students Association (NOSA) for their tireless efforts to revamp the School. I am delighted to be an honorary member.
I thank my brother Bishop John Wilson Nandaah of Mbale Diocese for his commitment to revive the School. I also thank the Head Teacher, Board of Governors, PTA, Staff and Students for their team work. Together we achieve more.
Onwards, upwards!”
