Our
partnership with West
Nile Ecumenical Vocational Training Centre (WNEVTC)
continues. One new partially deaf building student, Kennedy, has enrolled. We
have just recruited Moses, a hearing
carpentry instructor with sign-language skills, whose mobility
challenges have strengthened his determination to achieve and serve.
Our
sign-language resource development team has
developed what appears to be Uganda’s first illustrated carpentry signs.
This has allowed one of last year’s deaf building graduates, Wilfred, to join
WNEVTC’s carpentry course for the first time.
We also ran a half day sign workshop for all
WNEVTC new student intake, are setting
up sign-language displays and alongside deaf instructor, Temia,
we continue to provide communication support and optional sign-language
teaching in other useful topics at their student fellowship once a week. We
have provided sports equipment and some sports sign teaching too to help the
deaf and hearing students relax and compete together. Thank you WNEVTC for
your continued willingness to train deaf
and hearing students alongside one another.
