As part of the celebrations to mark 100 years since inception, management of Lake Victoria Primary School Entebbe put in place a series of activities.
A mini-marathon where former students, friends, well-wishers and other stakeholders joined together to sweat for a cause, have fun, network and of course exercise their bodies.
This marathon comes after a massive tree planting drive, medical camp and legal clinic, all activities intended to join forces together for a worthy cause.
A key stakeholder in Uganda Printing and Publishing Corporation (UPPC), the Government chief printers officially joined the school in these noble celebrations.
Prof Sudi Nangoli, the Managing Director of UPPC was ably represented by Joseph Opio Okurut (Deputy MD) as the chief runner.
Therefore, on behalf of the MD, Okurut officially flagged off the runners who engaged this early morning physical activity.
“UPPC was established over 120 years ago. When Lake Victoria Primary School is celebrating 100 years, we understand and know what it means.” Okurut revealed.
“UPPC is committed to community engagements and uplifting communities. As a school, you hold the future of Uganda. Happy to let you know, we shall stand with you as you build our community as we want to be part and parcel of community development.” Okurut added.
Steven Nabende, the current head teacher Lake Victoria Primary School – Entebbe was pleased with a key partner in UPPC and many others who have joined this worthy cause as the school celebrates 100 years.
“The school management with key stakeholders as UPPC and many others yet to come is humbled to celebrate 100 years with the marathon as part of the planned activities alongside tree planting, a medical camp, a legal clinic and a mega fete. I urge all the former pupils of this mighty school to join hands in the development of this school” Nabende urged.
On 21st September 2024, the school will mark the main celebrations with the Queen of Buganda Kingdom Lady Sylvia Nagginda Luswata as the chief guest confirmed.
The common alumna for the school among others include the Royal Queen of Buganda Kingdom Nabagereka Nagginda, Julia Sebutinde (Vice President of the International Criminal Court), David Byatiike Matovu (former MP, Entebbe Municipality), Rose Tumusiime (former MP, Entebbe Municipality), Ssebwana Charles Kiberu Kisirizza (leader in Buganda Kingdom), Vickman Proscovia Nanyonjo, Ronald Kafeero (Speaker, Entebbe Division B), John Barenzi (Academia), among others.
At its founding date, Lake Victoria Primary School Entebbe initially had two sections; lower part P1-P3 (The Common) and the upper P4-P7 (The Euro), accommodating children of the colonial elite cluster.
Over the years, it has remained a famous school, though, tirelessly working with vigor to restore its mojo in academics and other co-curriculum activities.
