SCHOOL

Our Mission

With your help we will continue to provide a Christian founded, accredited education to 200 children while preparing for the future with construction of a two-story building with eight additional classrooms, office, teachers’ area, sick bay, a clean water well, and toilets.  

Our History

After the first Real Church service of three people under that tree, life has moved fast.  While the Real Church grew from three to hundreds, Pastor Wamala married Teddy, his college sweetheart.  Don and Linda helped buy a home with land.  The following year after installing electricity in the home, eight small classrooms were built on the same property and the Real School was formed. 

The school is in Bulenga which is on the outskirts of Kampala, Uganda’s capital.  It is a government approved school which requires standardized tests for all students.  All of our dedicated teachers are College educated, and they are all members of the Real Church.  

The desire for a private education is very high.  Trying to help the community has led to the Real School growing to over 350 students within just a few years.  And still, more are hoping to attend.  The quick growth and overcrowded space led to poor test scores, and in 2019 the school scaled back the students to 200.  At the 200 level there are no more than 25 students in a class.  We have determined a quality education for 200 students is more important than trying to accommodate more students.  In 2019 for the first time every single student passed the government standard test.  

In early 2020 the government inspected the school facility and it didn’t meet their standards.  So, in 2020 construction began on the two-story building with eight additional classrooms, office, teachers’ area, sick bay, a clean water well, and toilets.  Covid 19 has halted construction.  The halt has opened the door to raise money for tuition for students.  Just like Don and Linda Hayes sponsored Pastor Wamala to attend school you too can sponsor a student at the Real School.  Close your eyes and think for a moment of your elementary school days, the excitement you had the first day of class with your new No. 2 pencils, your three ring binders, the perfect lunch box in your new backpack.  This is your chance to provide the same hope to a student search for hope halfway around the world.  We need those first day school supplies and everything else for the classrooms:  Lights, generators, desks, blackboards, laptops, student meals, fans, and teachers’ salaries.   Remember that one teacher that believed in you and helped prepare you for high-school college and beyond.  To finish the construction that has already begun the Real School needs to raise $150,000 and is here for those special people that want to help do God’s work and show their gratitude to that one teacher by making the commitment to help hundreds of students for years to come by making that tax free donation to build the building, or a classroom, or the office, or the teachers’ area, or the sick bay, or a clean water well, and toilets.   If this is you contact us and we will work with you directly on exactly how your money is being used for God’s work.
