No Class‘Room' needed

No Class‘room’ Needed (NCN) is a global initiative created with the collaboration of three schools.  Two schools located in Lloydminster, Alberta, Canada; Holy Rosary High and St. Mary’s Elementary, and our own school here in Uganda, East Africa, Hands of Hope and our Jr/Sr high students. Learners within NCN are changing the traditional view of ‘classroom’ while expanding their world views.  The project epitomizes meaningful collaboration while developing mutually beneficial learning experiences for all involved. Be sure to check in on this page and see what the kids are up to and how together they truly are making the world a smaller and better place to live.

November 28th, St. Mary’s students connect with OVU students. The questions, answers, singing and friendship that was fostered was beyond educational. Here a student explains a sandwich to OVU students.

We are happy to announce that nearly 7000$ has been raised to; empower, educate and equip students and staff involved in our partnership!
(December 2, 2014) OVU Christmas Thank You and Prayer 

This money goes much deeper than reaching a goal and sending cash to someone in need. The students from Lloydminster Canada and our students here at OVU believe in using the funds raised as a hand up and not a hand out. By doing it this way both sides have been able to see the long-term impact these funds are making and going to make. All money is to be spent in better equipping both schools so further educational connections can be fostered. Students in both communities are the leaders in decision making, project reviews and future planning. This has led to more empowerment than can be explained and deeper learning opportunities that are changing formal educational models, while setting a platform for other schools to mirror.
