My son had spent 3 years in middle class in his former school but still could not pick things, he used to have very poor memory, trouble with following instruction, very little attention span and restless much of the time. I had bought toys and books with no success, until a colleague told me to try Petinar Kindergarten school. When I reached here my first impression was the attention and caregivers were giving to children, then sitting arrangement and talking classes. And indeed, these are some of the aspects which have made my son better. I donate this water purifier worth $ 1,000 to this good learning Center. Am happy long live Petinar Kindergarten school.

I take on a parent's role to care for my most vulnerable students, those with learning disabilities I am most concerned about, especially at this preschool stage which shapes their future attitude towards studies at higher levels of learning. Kakindu community is one of the most congested communities in Wakiso District Katabi sub-county in Uganda, with an exponentially growing number of children with learning disabilities and those who are children of Young mothers who return to school after birth, the center was established by dedicated former Save the Children Staff who are passionate about educating children and have as well formalized these play-based learning process characterized by fun activities like singing and dancing. With over 45 children under my care, I am constrained with providing the necessary learning materials to support our play-based learning process. However, this does not deter me from finding innovative solutions to ensure that the children under her care develop literacy and numeracy skills, school readiness, self-confidence, socialization, communication, and problem-solving abilities. She improvises with plastic bottles, bottle caps, and sticks collected from the community to ensure children have recreational tools for learning and playing.

I am a mother to Saidat, a bright 15-year-old preparing for her primary school leaving exams, faced an unexpected turn of events, an early pregnancy. She became pregnant and had to leave school, entering a relationship with the father. While facing a failing relationship and with the encouragement of the Go Back to School campaign, Saidat found the strength to return to education. Petinar Kindergarten School played a crucial role in this journey by offering care for her young daughter, Faith, enabling Saidat to pursue her dream of becoming a professional Designer and Tailor. Deeply grateful for their support, Saidat expresses her heartfelt appreciation to Petinar Kindergarten School for helping her achieve her academic goals and build a brighter future.
As young mothers returning to school, gave me another opportunity to acquire the skills necessary to secure well-paying jobs, Am professional designer and Tailor. This has lifted my family out of poverty and provide better opportunities for my baby girl in the future. I appreciate Petinar Kindergarten school for encouragement and accepting to keep and educate my child with learning disabilities.
Each child has inborn creativity. All we need to do is give them encouragement and opportunities for free play, particularly dramatic and constructive play which will foster creativity in them. Petinar Kindergarten school provides children with a stimulating environment where they can discover their talents like dancing, art and craft, music, clay moulding etc. Aesthetic Appreciation is a form of development.
