CreativitY

Innovative learning to help nurture the young minds into becoming tomorrow’s innovators

We work with teachers and parents to create innovative and creative educational programs

Bcreativity is a UK-based charity spearheaded by a previous primary school teacher from South East London who had a dream to empower disadvantaged children in Uganda.

 

Bringing more than 30 years of experience and inspiring children from developing nations a chance to find their strengths and talents through creativity and imagination.

 

Having taught in her native country Uganda and also taught in the UK, she was able to bring together her skillset to produce the best of both experiences and offer the children a more well-rounded education.

 

Within the community, she has been able to accomplish the mission statement for BCreativity trust by providing a programme and a center where its ethos is accomplished.

PROJECTS

Two Bridges School

Basena Community Center

In February 2015 Harriet and John took on the enormous task of re-establishing the Two Bridges Primary School in the Kakiri Wakiso District, a long term project. Using experience from The Baseno Agro Creativity Centre plus developing Fabulous Phonics with Ruth Moyler amazing results have been achieved in just the first 20 months. John says“Two Bridges community School is a challenge but very rewarding, when you see the children blossom like flowers it makes it all worth while, one is inspired to keep going.”

Along with her partner John Senteza, Harriet Namusoke collected toys and books for 8 years and established the Basena Agro Creativity Centre in Kampala in April 2013 with the ambition of encouraging creativity and appreciation of the environment in schools and the community at large. "Play nurtures creativity and learning through play is fantastic,"says Harriet,"Children are playing and learning at the same time and this is something I really want to strengthen among Ugandan schools. Learning does not only take place in the classroom."

Celebrating the end of the year with our overseas family

The end of the academic year (Nov/Dec 2016) was memorable as we had our overseas family to celebrate with us. Ruth, Nick and Jill made these last days very special. Ruth gave the most wonderful training of how to teach reading (phonics) and Nick led these amazing workshops in leadership skills. Jill – nicknamed smooth operator – was there to make things happen. The training was held off-site at Kamunye village near Mpigi.

Many thanks to all friends of Two Bridges Community School for the love, support and all that you have given to make the children’s school life worthwhile. We can see many honest smiles and faces showing hope in the last few weeks. Great things as listed below wouldn’t have happened without you.

Some locally made seats and planks have helped the children to write more easily.

Teachers are more settled in and they are fully engaged in the running of the school.

Parents have noticed the positive change and they are more involved in their children’s learning and have become part of the school community, meetings are well attended.

Three-quarters of the Nursery building now has windows and doors.

The children have planted some grass in the school playground.

A chicken house has been built with three hens and a cock.

Children made Christmas cards for sale in order to fundraise for the water system.

A well-wisher sponsored the two Directors to visit the Holy Land in October 2015. The children received a school bell from the trip.

Harriet has continued to network in the UK and as a result, Two Bridges has one Primary School and an Independent School as its partners and we hope many more will join this amazing network.

Freyja Lee has been very active to ensure that four children remain in school by getting sponsorship for a further year and also supplying projects and materials for craft classes and some clothing.

The children had their first local trip visiting the river Mayanja which is 15min walk from the school. They then had a bigger trip visiting Kampala city, the Parliament, the National Theatre, the National hospital, the new Victoria mall, the Zoo and Basena Agro Creativity Centre.
