Building work proceeding

We mentioned that the electrical work on the Hostel had been completed; this picture (emailed from Enos yesterday) show the three solar panels on the roof. I am not sure what the man is doing!
The plumbing work, we were told, is still proceeding. As proof, here are some of the cisterns for the toilets arriving on site. (They are going to be fitting five WC pan sitting toilets, not African-style squatting toilets. I imagine the external toilet block will have the squatting variety.)
I never thought I would be discussing styles of toilet online!

Generous Gift
We have just been given a very generous gift of £2,000 by a supporter. In Ugandan money that is over nine million shillings! It will be a extremely valuable contribution towards the next phase of building. Thank you so very much, friends!

Hot news from Kasese!

Yes, the kids are scratching through a chicken hutch in case there is any food left over for them!

Enos Kyibibi, the Project Director of SKILL (Street Kids Information and Learning for Life) emailed yesterday to say:
- We have finished the electricity connection work.
- The water connection work is still going on.
- The next step will be the inside doors.
- We hope that resettlement of children will be in January 2012.
That is really good news!
