> Sarah receives her medical diploma


> Diploma in Clinical Medicine and Community Health

It is with great joy, pride and gratitude that we share this special moment:
Our full-time nurse Sarah has successfully completed her
“Diploma in Clinical Medicine and Community Health”!

This milestone is not only a personal achievement for Sarah –
it is a gift for our entire school community.


🩺 What this diploma means

The “Diploma in Clinical Medicine and Community Health” is a recognised medical qualification in Uganda. It qualifies the holder to provide comprehensive basic medical care – particularly in rural regions where doctors are often out of reach.

During her training Sarah learnt, among other things:

  • to recognise and treat illnesses at an early stage

  • to make medical decisions responsibly

  • to carry out preventive health work

  • to educate and strengthen families and communities

She is now bringing this knowledge directly to where it is needed most urgently – to our children.


🌱 Healthcare on site – every single day

Sarah has been working full-time on our campus for some time now.
With her new qualification she can now work even more competently, independently and responsibly.

She is the first point of contact for:

  • minor injuries and acute illnesses

  • fever, infections and emergencies

  • health checks and vaccination campaigns

  • conversations with parents about medical questions

In addition, she raises awareness of hygiene, prevention and healthy eating – topics that are new and life-changing for many families.


💛 A woman of heart, skill and responsibility

What makes Sarah special is not only her expertise.
It is her heart.

For many children she is someone they trust – someone who listens, reassures and is there.
She knows the children not only by name, but often also their stories, worries and circumstances.

In a country where medical care is hard to reach for many people, Sarah’s presence on our school grounds means safety, dignity and hope.


🙏 Thank you – and a look ahead

We warmly congratulate Sarah on this wonderful achievement and thank her for her tireless daily commitment.

At the same time, her story shows how important it is to support and train local staff. Because lasting change happens where knowledge grows and responsibility is taken on.
