Trinity Children’s Center | Kabowa was founded in 1986 by Mrs. Sarah Serunjogi, a teacher by profession. What started with just 6 pupils has grown to over 1200 children, thanks to Mrs. Serunjogi’s vision of providing affordable education to children who were unable to attend school due to high fees or difficult living conditions in the slums of Kampala. After spending three years in a slum area of the city, Mrs. Serunjogi realized the dire need to offer education to these children, many of whom had turned to the streets.
Initially, the school catered to a small number of children, offering affordable education to those who were often excluded from traditional schools. Over time, Trinity Children’s Center has grown and now serves a diverse group of children, including orphans and disadvantaged children, providing them with an opportunity for education, personal development, and a better future.
Today, the center has 47 dedicated staff members, both teaching and non-teaching, working hard to provide a strong foundation for over 1200 students.
Trinity Children’s Centre, Kabowa was founded with the following aims: To bring or take education facilities nearer to the people. To lay a firm foundation for successful future studies of pupils. To pay special attention to the moral, physiological and psychological requirements of the children at this important stage of development. The establishment of sound academic standard. The development of a good moral fabric.
We have four campuses and these are:
- Trinity primary school in Sembule Zone
- Trinity Kindergarten in Kironde Zone
- Trinity Nursery academy
- Faith Nursery Academy in Kitebi Zone
Many orphans have been given free education. When the center first opened, there were few orphans and we felt we could accommodate them without them paying school fees. But when AIDS struck and it is still striking as very hard.
We are losing parents at a rate of 5 parents per year and on average each of them has 2 to 4 children in our school – this means only in one year between 10 to 20 children became orphans in our school. It is, therefore, not surprising that presently we have more than 200 orphans in the center. The ever increasing number of orphans who do not pay school fees has strains our financial arrangements since we don’t get any grants from government.
