Welcome to John Paul Secondary School - Chelekura
Where every child is seen, nurtured and equipped to thrive.
Lumen Summus
John Paul Secondary School began in July of 2005, when a Diocesan Priest from Uganda named Msgr. John Kauta, was the guest speaker at our church for the annual Mission Appeal Sunday. He spoke passionately about the people of Uganda, their poverty, their great need and particularly the plight of the children. He also discussed the oppression and atrocities they have been forced to endure and the devastation inflicted on the country by war and brutal dictators. Msgr. Kauta is a very dynamic speaker and we were immediately drawn to him. We decided at that moment we wanted to do something special. After mass we waited around to introduce ourselves and first broached the subject of possibly building a school for the children in Uganda
