Parents and guardians of children enrolled in church-run and government-aided schools have urged to actively support their education and provide a positive learning environment during school hours.
The call was made on Sunday during the fundraising for the construction of four classrooms at Kitunguru Church School in Nyakariro, Bugangari Sub County Rukungiri district.
Mr. Dan Ahimbisibwe Bahamire represented the Security Minister Hon. Maj. Gen. Jim Katugugu Muhwezi, the Member of Parliament for Rujumbura County who was the chief guest.
During the ceremony, Mr. Ahimbisibwe expressed his congratulations to the parents and suggested that instead of waiting for the government to intervene; parents should take back control of their child’s education and actively monitor the way their school is run in addition of providing financial support to the school so that it can undergo restructuring.
He criticized parents who send their children to schools for not making the necessary time or financial commitments to support their education and help them grow.
He urged residents to choose candidates who can bring services closer to people like General Jim Muhwezi rather than those who are only interested in politics for themselves.
During the function, Kitunguru Church School, 100 bags of cement were donated by Minister Jim Muhwezi to help build four classrooms.
