Kitutu Masaba Member of Parliament Clive Ombane has pledged to give a face-lift to play grounds in the primary schools in the Constituency through NG-CDF.
He said the Competency Based Curriculum (CBC) sufficient space for children to play and display their varied competences.
Already Sh 2 Million has been released to Tombe Primary School to kick start the initiative which will escalate to other selected schools in the Constituency.
“Children are naturally playful so denying them a good place for their activities is equivalent to thwarting their holistic growth in the pursuit of education. “He said.
The lawmaker was speaking at Tombe Primary School where he inspected the field and recommended it for standardization among other five pitches from other primary schools during the 2022/23 budget.
“Every Ward will get one modern playing field to facilitate quality sports in the Constituency.” He said.
The MP asked teachers to involve their pupils in sports activities in order to prevent them from idleness that may lead to destruction.
He appealed to the Members of County Assembly (MCAs) from his Constituency to liaise with his office and plan together in order to avoid duplication of development projects.
The legislator further said that his office has developed an elaborate programme in which bright students will be given full scholarship throughout their education.
He challenged the current KCPE candidates to work hard and excel in their forthcoming examinations adding that those who will score good marks will be the first beneficiaries of the promised scholarship.
