Canaan Nursery and Primary School is a well-educated and illiteracy-free community school located in Kasusu South Division, Fort Portal Tourism City, Western Uganda. Through education and co-curricular activities, we build a skilled community from the young generation of today. Our teaching system enhances absolute decision-making skills in our students. Established in 2015, Canaan Nursery and Primary School is committed to educating the community and eradicating illiteracy. We started with four classes: Baby Class, Middle Class, Top Class, and Primary One, and we aim to add more classes annually. Currently, we have classes up to Primary Four.
Our main mission is to strengthen and promote the quality of education from the grassroots level.
The vision of the school is a well-educated and illiteracy-free community through education and co-curricular activities, creating a skilled community to enhance absolute decision-making.
I am Hope Leontina, born in Fort Portal City in Central Division. I grew up as an orphan, having lost both of my parents when I was seven years old. I was uplifted by the late Rev. Fr. Albert Babuza Byaruhanga to attain education. Having experienced a tough childhood and being helped by a priest, I desired to help other children access education by establishing a community school that caters to needy children, providing quality education at a cheaper price. However, as time goes on, managing the school becomes harder due to growing numbers and fewer funds since the children pay less. I seek funds or donations to continue this mission.
I attended St. Peter and Paul's Primary School, Kihembo Hill Memorial College for secondary education, and then pursued a certificate in journalism. Though I am not a teacher, I am a journalist working with Voice of Tooro, driven by a passion to make the world a better place.
